Our traditions by Maria Danila Salvadore

  • In the town where I work in, Alexandria (Piedmont), there is an ethnographic museum, a source of many resources for the knowledge of our traditions. Last year we visited him with a second year class of human sciences. Young people have been listening to our speakers. Then they admitted to being really interested in the topics discussed. In the past, Alexandria had an agricultural and river economy but a small industry attracted many workers: the Borsalino Hats Factory. We can present our traditions, section by section.
