Carnevale Tradizionale di Montescaglioso

From dawn on Shrove Tuesday, cowbell-ringing masked figures parade the streets of this Murgia hilltop village, led by the Carnevalone riding a donkey alongside his black-clad wife the Quaremma, in a living carnival ritual that enacts the annual battle between feast and fast.
