This year\u2019s theme, \u201cO Caminho de Santiago e o Natal\u201d (\u201cThe Camino and Christmas\u201d)<\/strong>, focuses on the relationship between the spirituality of the Camino and Christmas traditions. The session will be led by historian and archaeologist Joel Cleto<\/strong>, known for his research and dissemination of medieval history. His presentation will reflect on symbolic elements that connect the pilgrimage to the Christmas season, examining episodes, representations, and practices that bring both traditions together.<\/p>\n

The conference also includes a musical component by the group Allcateia<\/strong>, which uses medieval instruments to recreate sounds associated with historical settings, helping to frame the theme in a way that brings the audience closer to the environments evoked by the Camino\u2019s imagery and the festive season.<\/p>\n

Participation is free but limited to the room\u2019s capacity. Advance registration is required through the form<\/a> provided by the organizers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
