[2][3] The Muisca and their confederation were one of the four advanced civilizations of the Americas and developed their own religion on the Altiplano Cundiboyacense in the Andes.

After the creation of light and the world by Chiminigagua he created Chía and Sué to represent the Moon and the Sun respectively.

Spanish conquistador Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada wrote about the Muisca: "they have the Sun and the Moon as breeders of all the things and believe they are together as husband and wife having created the councils".

[7] On the date of the summer solstice, the Muisca nobles went in a procession to the temples where they made sacrifices to ask for blessings of the yearly harvests.

They also adored their own shadows as they believed that Sué gave them their own personal god that they carried with them all day.
