La Paz; Bolivia; Fiesta de las 補titas; skull with floral wreath and candles. The annual celebration is held on 8 November; to commemorate and thank the 馻titas; which are skulls kept in shrines at home. These skulls are considered as helpers and intercessors for the living. The largest celebration is at the Cementerio General (Cemetery General). This photo was taken on the cemetery grounds soon after the day's first service in the chapel; and it shows a skull with a floral wreath; and candles placed by it in offering. Photo 2009.
