Talk:Bochica

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Is there any reference that relates Bochica with Quetzalcoatl, any reason why is in this article some comment about how there is a quote about Mexican mythology in a Mexican book, or did another Mexican with Bart Simpson complex got jealous because they were not talking about Mexico in an article about Colombian mythology and came with an idiotic excuse to pretend they invented something they didn't even know existed and is not related to their mythology

'See also' should reference Salto del Tequendama

Merger between Sua (Muyscas) and Bochica

[edit]

On the Sua page, the deity is described as "also known as Bachica". They both are solar gods, parts of the Muiscan pantheon. Cheers, ChoumX (talk) 20:15, 13 November 2013 (UTC).[reply]

Agreed with the merge; the article title is wrong anyway, using an old spelling "Muyscas" in Spanish plural where it would be "Muisca" (pl) in English. Tisquesusa (talk) 21:26, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The sources that identify Sua with Bochica all seem fringe, eg[1] by an author who thinks Peru was an Indian colongy. Muisca religion and mythology What I do find is sources stating that Sua is the word for sun or "day" as opposed to night.is a University of Chicago publication. Sadly I don't read Spanish or might be able to find better sources. Doug Weller talk 09:32, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that, Doug Weller, I will try to find more sources and see what they say. Sam Sailor Talk! 10:36, 21 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
