El Refugio del Volcán at 3,830 meters (12,565 feet) above sea level, Climbing the Summit of the Active and Mighty Stratovolcano 'Tungurahua' ('Throat of Fire' volcano) at 5,023 meters (16,479 feet) above sea level, Baños, the Central Highlands, Ecuador.

            Pachamama is usually translated as Mother Earth, but a more literal translation would be "World Mother" (in Aymara and Quechua). 

The Inca goddess can be referred to in multiple ways; the primary way being Pachamama. Other names for her are: Mama Pacha, La Pachamama, and Mother Earth. 

La Pachamama differs from Pachamama because the "La" signifies the interwoven connection that the goddess has with nature, whereas Pachamama – without the "La" – refers to only the goddess.
