An Andean Notion About soroche.


On one occasion, crossing the Tacora
pass, abreast of Tacna, Peru, l was
severely attacked by mountain sick
ness at an elevation of only about 1000
feet above sea level 1t completely
Frustrated me, but my Indian arrierO
told me that 1.-The spot was famous for
soroche," the name by which mountain
sickness is known to all the Aymara
and Quichna people of the Andean
range, land that if | would continue
my journey up the cOrdillera it would
leave me-"
The following morning l was lifted
into my saddle and continued the as
cent of the pass, and within two hours
was nearly we'll again, and before
reached the summit of the pass, about
1880 feet altitude, the soroche had
entirely left me.
The Indians among the Andes have
frequently told me that ''sOroche is not
the effect of altitude, but" as they put
it, ''Of mineral veins" 1t may be that
the geological and atmospheric condi-
tions of certain localities are to some
extent the cause of it, in addition to
altitude, the former being perhaps the
principal factors. although imperfect
digestion and constipation invite it.
During a long ride in southern Bo-
livia, at an elevation of from $4,000
to $4,000 feet, l noticed that before
leaving the post houses the Indians
rubbed garlic on the nose and breast
of my mule. They told me that this
was ito prevent the soroche. ."-LoIdon
