Abstract
We present a knowledge graph to document the Chunchada-a women-led ritual dance in honor of the Virgin of Rosario in Paucartambo, Peru. Using oral testimonies, archival data, and AI-based extraction, we reveal ritual relations through graph analysis and community curation. The project exemplifies a hybrid approach to intangible heritage preservation, combining graph mining and community-driven data curation to facilitate both academic insight and public engagement.
