Summary[edit]

Description
Español: San Miguel de Azapa es un poblado ubicado en el Valle de Azapa a unos 12km de la ciudad de Arica, Chile. Su cementerio es uno de los más peculiares del mundo por su historia que se remonta a más de 2.000 años, el estilo de las tumbas y las prácticas ceremoniales paganas del Día de Todos los Santos. Cada 1 de noviembre el cementerio se transforma en un lugar rebozante de familias que llegan a visitar a sus deudos con bandas de música, comida y presentes para los fallecidos. El lugar es además un sitio arqueológico caracterizado por la presencia de túmulos funerarios; lomas artificiales donde, capa tras capa, se enterraba a los muertos con ofrendas funerarias, separados en sentido vertical por capas vegetales. Se calcula que tal vez hubo antes unos 40 túmulos, de los cuales quedan 15 en el lugar. En época contemporánea, en la superficie de ellos se han construido algunas de las tumbas modernas, sin que muchos sepan que bajo ellas hay peculiares demostraciones de las pácticas funerarias de hace 2.500-1.500 años.
