A group of Joaldunak called Zanpantzar, take part in the carnival between the Pyrenees villages of Ituren and Zubieta, northern Spain, Monday, Jan. 29, 2024. In one of the most ancient carnivals in Europe, dating from before the Roman empire, companies of Joaldunak (cowbells) made up of residents of two towns, Ituren and Zubieta, parade the streets costumed in sandals, lace petticoats, sheepskins around the waist and shoulders, coloured neckerchiefs, conical caps with ribbons and a hyssop of horsehair in their right hands and cowbells hung across their lower back.
