The Diablada or Dance de Diablos (English: Dance of the Devils) is a primival typical Andean masked dance. It is the main dance of the Carnaval de Oruro held in honor of the Virgin of Socavón Oruro in Oruro Bolivia. It is characterized by the mask and devil suit wore by the dancers. Unlike other similar expressions of the Andes it is considered to retain most of the artistic expression coming from pre-Columbian America.
