In this June 4, 2015 photo, a Pujili dancer wears a headdress decorated with Catholic and indigenous symbols, as he performs in the streets of Pujili, Ecuador, during the Corpus Christi celebrations, jointly honoring the Holy Communion or Eucharist and Inti the ancient Inca sun god. While most of the region's native peoples identify themselves as Roman Catholic, some practice syncretic rituals that blend the church's traditional beliefs with native customs.
