Bochica Teaching the MuiscaLuis Alberto Acuña

This 1960-70s mural depicts Bochica, the bearded sage and civilizing hero of Muisca mythology, imparting moral and spiritual lessons. Seated before young disciples, he holds symbols of power and knowledge, including a woven banner. A revered figure, Bochica was believed to have formed the Tequendama Falls and taught the Muisca how to live harmoniously.
