💨 Abstract
In central Venezuela, a traditional Indigenous dance known as "baile en candela" or "candle dance" was recognized as part of the nation's cultural heritage. The ritual, honoring the goddess Maria Lionza, involves men jumping over hot coals and beating themselves with burning wood. The ceremony pays tribute to Venezuela's ancient ancestors who believed the dance imbued them with the sun god, helping them fight against colonial oppressors.
