Unreal Indigenous Marriage Customs Of Chile.
Explore the rich and sacred traditions of the Mapuche people of Chile, the largest Indigenous group in the country. In this in-depth video, we dive into the traditional Mapuche marriage ceremony, known as Elwedkan, which is far more than a simple union of two people. It’s a powerful fusion of family alliances, spiritual rituals, and communal celebration.
This video takes you through:
Courtship and arranged marriages
The symbolic “raptu” (bride kidnapping) tradition
Pre-wedding purification rituals
The sacred wedding led by a Machi (spiritual leader)
Traditional clothing, instruments, and ceremonial food
Feasting, music, and communal dancing
Post-marriage responsibilities and gender roles
Modern influences and evolving customs
Whether you are passionate about Indigenous cultures, Latin American traditions, or anthropological customs, this video provides a powerful lens into the timeless beauty of Mapuche life.
