El Carnaval de Humahuaca es una celebración popular, que se realiza al comienzo de la cuaresma (40 días antes de Semana Santa), en la zona de la Quebrada de Humahuaca, provincia de Jujuy, Argentina.
Introducido por los españoles en América, el carnaval se fusionó con rituales nativos destinados a celebrar la fecundidad de la tierra y a honrar a la deidad de la Madre Tierra, la Pachamama, por los bienes recibidos. Se trata de una versión breve y adaptada de la festividad peruana del Kapaj Inti Rami, que se iniciaba en diciembre y finalizaba en marzo, en la cual se bebía, cantaba, comía y bailaba hasta el paroxismo.[1]
El festejo se inicia en cada comunidad con el desentierro del diablo, llamado Coludo o Pujllay, que simboliza la celebración, de una apacheta[n 1] de piedras, representado por un muñeco de trapo que fue enterrado en el final del último carnaval. Los deseos reprimidos se liberan y durante el festejo se permite embriagarse sin recato, los preceptos morales son dejados de lado. La iglesia católica se ha visto obligada con el correr del tiempo a participar de los festejos "paganos".[1]
Hay baile y música interpretada con instrumentos autóctonos como los erkenchos, las anatas, los charangos y bombos. Los habitantes se visten con trajes coloridos utilizando cascabeles y máscaras para disfrazarse; se divierten impregnándose la cara con harina y tirándose con talco y serpentinas mientras reparten ramitas de albahaca.
La tradición tiene reminiscencias indígenas, españolas y criollas. Además, por ser la Quebrada de Humahuaca paso obligado hacia el Perú y Bolivia, ha asimilado la música y algunas características de esos países.
Los dos jueves anteriores al carnaval los compadres se reúnen para celebrar el reencuentro, y al jueves siguiente llega el turno de las comadres, quienes se entretienen en divertidas copleadas relatando lo que les ocurrió a lo largo del año. El sábado de carnaval se juntan las comparsas.
Dura ocho días: con el sol las comparsas concurren a las invitaciones, bailando carnavalitos por las calles, y a la noche se baila en los locales. El festejo termina el "Domingo de Tentación", con el "entierro" del Diablo, en un hoyo que representa la boca de la Pachamama, junto a cigarrillos, coca, serpentinas y chicha. Se prueban entonces platos típicos como empanadas, corderos, queso de cabra y bebiendo, entre otras cosas, chicha y entre lamentos se reza para que haya nuevamente diversión al año siguiente.
En el pequeño poblado de Tilcara es donde este carnaval alcanza su máximo fervor.
