Handmade Authentic Bolivian Ekeko Doll of Abundance & Good Fortune, Traditional Decor 8"x6.5"x4"

This god of prosperity is a popular god found mainly in Bolivia, but also in Peru, Northern Chile and Northern Argentina. He is the Tiwanakan god of abundance.

He is shown a man with a mustache, wearing traditional clothing.

He is loaded with tiny parcels. They may contain just about anything. Often the miniature packages contain food and candy representing that all the basic needs will be taken care of. Other articles may be miniature household items, miniature cars, diplomas and so forth.

It is not uncommon to see money attached to the doll. This is obviously with the intent of attracting financial abundance.

These small offerings made to the god represent what a person hopes to receive or achieve to secure a prosperous life.

Ideally you give these miniature offerings to the god, but you do not keep him yourself, you give the god away as a gift to someone you truly want to see has success. This is meant to be a compassionate and unselfish gesture.
