After Sunbilla, yesterday, today was the time for the ancestral Carnivals of Ituren and Zubieta are.
On the Monday after the last Sunday in January, "Joaldunak" characters from the Basque cultural tradition set out on the path that separates Zubieta from Ituren (3 km) to announce the arrival of Carnival. They do so dressed in sandals, lace petticoats, sheep coats around the waist and shoulders, colored scarves around their necks, conical hats with ribbons called ttuntturros, and a horsehair swab in their right hand.
But if there is something that powerfully attracts attention, it is the large bronze cowbells that they carry attached to their hips and that they shake rhythmically with the aim of awakening the land from its winter lethargy, so that it can be productive again during the upcoming spring.
One of the most beautiful Rural Basque tradition that is kept alive for centuries! 🤩🎭
