 Both deities served as the basis for the complex lunisolar Muisca calendar, having different divisions for synodic and sidereal months.The days were equal to the Gregorian calendar days and the three different years were composed of sets of different months; rural years of 12 or 13 months, common years of 20 months and holy years of 37 months.One of the most important religious figures in the Muisca religion was Bochica, the bearded messenger god.
