The origins of this local tradition date back to the eighteenth century.
"Madamas, galáns and aldeáns" represent different social roles and economic positions.
The Galáns & the madamas occupy the highest ones.
The majority group, the aldeáns, represent the last link in the chain.
Each year sequins, ribbons, feathers and other decorations have to be renewed as they get lost during the dancing and the festivities.
