About the rite

In Colombia’s Pirá Paraná region, boys learn about seasonal cycles, kinship, ceremonial knowledge and communal responsibilities through Hee Biki. Elders connect these teachings with the roles boys will take on as adults. Cultural material from 2011 describes the practice without dating a later ceremony.
