suletina

Traditional dance represented by the edaridun or barmaid, who pretends to be a female character: the zamaltzain, who wears a wooden frame and cloth like a horse with a tiny head which represents the man-animal; the gatusain, which wears a wooden trellis which opens in zigzag, representing the lightening which brings the rain for the crops; the txerrero to banish the bad spirits.
