Heviosso
Humans used to be sacrificed to Heviosso until the arrival of the Europeans who replaced humans with bulls. The bull's throat was cut very slowly to drain as much of the blood as possible as it was believed that the life blood was the true source of life.
When greeting cult superiors, worshippers crouch down with their hands clasped and place them between the hands of their superior fellow initiate. They then wiggle their posteriors from side to side.
Heviosso dances become frenzied and the dancers oftendestroy plants, huts and even the shrine of the god.
