A party created in a pre-capitalist society is currently celebrated in the Ecuadorian Amazon.

This sacred ritual of the Uyantza symbolizes life and reaffirms the validity and sovereignty of the original Kichwa people of Sarayaku. It is an act of unity and solidarity among peoples and an act of gratitude to the Amazanka, nunkuli and Mother Earth, for the goodness and abundance that Mother Nature grants them every day.
