      ¿Y si hubiéramos seguido siendo paganos?

      Hace poco vi un post the este tipo de vestimentas tradicionales en diferentes partes del mundo, los puntos comunes son increíbles, al final todas vienen de un momento donde las referencias son elementos naturales supongo.

      Buen momento para recordar la existencia del infravaloradísimo videoclip de la canción [Gris de Basanta](https://youtu.be/VtYaByeju0g) (Galicia) que recoge varios de estos disfraces.

      (Puede que alguno sea mezcla de varios o inventado, como los que llevan los de la propia banda siempre).

      Beautiful. Where are these types of clothing usually worn? For any specific holiday or festival?
