Ottana la notte di Sant'Antonio Su Boe e Su Merdule ------ I Bòes e i Merdùles sono due maschere della tradizione barbaricina tipiche del carnevale di Ottana e tra le più conosciute in tutta la Sardegna. Rappresentano la lotta tra l'istinto animalesco e la ragione umana; infatti, nelle esibizioni carnevalesche, il Boe viene inseguito, frustato e catturato dal Merdule, recitando furiose risse. ---- Su Boe, i Boes indossano sul volto una maschera (caratza in sardo) che ha le fattezze di un bue (da qui il loro nome). Per realizzare la maschera viene utilizzato prevalentemente pero selvatico e possono esservi diverse decorazioni, tra le quali il più famoso fiore della vita, simbolo di prosperità, di speranza e di buon auspicio. Essi indossano pelli di pecora bianca e hanno un grappolo di campanacci a tracolla (detti anche Su Erru o Su Sonazos) dal peso di circa 30 kg. Su Merdule, i Merdules, propriamente "i guardiani dei buoi", cercano di comandare i boes durante tutta la sfilata. Anch'essi sono coperti di pelli di pecora bianca o nera (abbastanza raro) e indossano una maschera di colore nero che ha le fattezze del volto di un vecchio uomo deforme, brutto e con una bocca ghignante. Utilizzano un bastone, Su Matzuccu, col quale richiamano a sé i Boes, o provano ad addomesticarli usando una fune di cuoio, Sa Soca.

We entered some hellish cave. An image that is as exciting as your story. I am always fascinated by these re-enactments of rituals that are lost in the mists of time. Masterful interpretation Giuseppe. The quality of the file is excellent despite the high iso.
Bye gios ;-)
