Cuba Burial of Pachencho

Divaldo Aguiar, who plays the part of Pachencho, lies inside a mock coffin lowered into a grave, as residents try to splash rum into Aguiar’s mouth during the Burial of Pachencho celebration at a cemetery in Santiago de Las Vegas, Cuba. Residents stage the mock funeral and burial of Pachencho, with a living man playing the part of Pachencho, in a boozy festival that has become an annual tradition to mark the end of the local carnival season.
