  • Like the medieval band of troubadors from which it is descended Tuna de Derecho of Santiago de Compostela gathers at a tavern in a little plaza after their nightly performance to continue their singing, now just for fun.   The gathering finally broke  up at 3:00 AM.   Made up of university students, the Tuna, sings for donations to help them pay for their studies.  Often racey and very suggestive, the singers are nothing if not charming.  Must see in Santiago.

Workers are cutting the oats by hand with sickles, and pile them behind them as they move up the field, singing as they go. Then the bundles are hauled to the stacks where a man on top arranges them so that the grain heads are to the inside of the stack so they will dry and be protected from rain before being threshed. The man on the top of the stack is Nigussu Kissaye.

Here the old Celtic ways are still pretty fresh and the current generation still uses the old Pallozas, thatched stone houses that were home to livestock as well, even if they have built newer living quarters next door.  Jose (check this name) was born in this palloza and still uses it everyday, keeping his cattle and chickens here.  Note the Roman cart, still used in some areas of Galicia.
