age doesn't matter :ddd

>girl
Is that common?

Prehispanic yeah, the exact meaning is unknown, but is clearly related to five suns myth considering 4 people move around a fifth one.

According to the legend there were 4 eras before the current one, and each of them was defined by a god who ruled over a different type of mankind. If the second and fourth era are rearranged, you have Sun who ruled over fishes, then a Sun who ruled over giants that were devoured, followed by a Sun that destroyed most mankind with a rain of fire (remind me a lot of the meteorite that cause the dinosaur extinction), and an era inhabited monkeys and degenerated hominids ruled by hte Sun of Beauty (Quetzalcoatl).
The fifth and current era is the Sun of movement and change, inhabited by us.

It may sound like forced interpretation but the devoured giants they referred to were dinossaur fossils.

not really
good eye btw

Mhmmm shoeys..a nice touch of cheese

>MFW we have no good traditions that haven't been commercialized.

do other states not yell "IT'S A SHOE IT'S A SHOE IT'S A SHOE" when someone's doing a shoey?
everyone in WA does

I kinda like thanksgiving.

Nah never heard that

Ricciardio's a sandgroper, right? Never seen him do that in the F1

yeah he is, doing the boys back home in Perth proud

...

Where's this from?
Reminds me of tastoanes from Tonalá

Invoking the Horned One. Pic related, opening ceremony of the Gotthard tunnel recently

they still do this do they?

That's pretty much the only one left. Fourth of July is okay but it's still falls into the trap of all American holidays where it's really just a big college frat party. Halloween seems to be more dead each year and has just become another day to get drunk only now with costumes. Christmas is just a commercial behemoth. I don't even know what the hell Easter was supposed to be. The rest of the holidays are literal who's.

...

they lied puerto ricans dont exist

We drink vodka at Vappu and get hangover next day.

I don't even know why we celebrate Easter. It's supposed to be for fertility but we have midsummer for that.
Our Christmas went downhill during the 80's

This looks really neat. Whats the context for them?

...

>Whats the context for them?
Celtic autism. Most of these traditions are from the north of Spain.

>mfw there's not a single American tradition in this thread because they have none

In general? this masquerades are related with ancient pagan traditions about the begining of fall or the end of winter. In this case most of the pics that i posted are from different castilian village but some of them are from basque country and galicia.

this is going to be the last one

cool mask

what's the context??

if you mean if it's still practiced, yes, yearly, and in different states in the country

We also have Nazarenos, even a pamplonada. Indigenous peoples in some places do a dance that's a celebration of reconquista.

Burning your favorite pop culture and politcal figures in New Year

Oh hey, we do that too.

Easter witches. It was believed in the old days that witches became more active during the night following Christ's crucifixion. People made virpoja to keep the witches out.

Nowadays in Palm Sunday children dress up as witches and go door to door to collect candy by giving people virpas.
Kinda like Halloween but everybody's a witch and you have to work for it by making the virpas.
