THE CIMBRI

The oldest origin of this people is traced back to the late 2nd century BC, when the Germanic or Celtic tribes, the Cimbri, invaded the territory of the Roman Republic, caused problems around the Venetian Prealps and keeping language and culture. Ancient sources indicate their original premises in the North of Jutland, Denmark, called Cimbrian peninsula throughout antiquity.

More recent occurrence and consequently more endorsed by the scientific community, was the descent from southern Germany South of the Alps and also on the plateau, around and particularly after 1000 (low Middle Ages), of some groups coming fromBavaro-Tyrolean language area '. These were populations emigrated from Germany mostly peacefully, seeking land to farm for a living, often guided by Bishops, Imperial representatives, by the religious orders, as reflected explicitly by some historical documents.

The length of the Schellaträgar: the study for the new costume

For the2018 Edition Hoga Zait we wanted to investigate the appearance of a typical Highland costume going to seek the earliest sources or at least what you would bring to the timing of the Dear of the seven municipalities; from a publication of the Institute of Cimbrian expedition of 1979, for a very precise indications were found Mario Bass that were contained in an unpublished manuscript of the Abbot Modest Bancroft (1812 – 1902) attributable to a period dating back to the end of Regency. With the collaboration of Dr. Giancarlo Bortoli we tried then to interpret styles and uses the cimbri in tailoring. Ideas and designs you have translated into models and then into costumes through the work of Tailoring cloud of Recoaro , which already had some experience in historical costume change.

Thelength of Schellaträgar is playing closer to historical reality refers to the end of ' 700 and the beginning of 800; an extract of the part about "the Alpine adult" (the manuscript also contains a detailed description of the clothes of women and children) shows the text:
