PIORNAL, SPAIN - JANUARY 20: People throw turnips at the Jarramplas as he makes his way through the streets beating his drum during the Jarramplas Festival on January 20, 2013 in Piornal, Spain. The centuries old Jarramplas festival takes place annually every January 19-20 on Saint Sebastian Day. Even though the exact origins of the festival are not known, various theories exist including the mythological punishment of Caco by Hercules, a relation to ceremonies celebrated by the American Indians that were seen by the first conquerors, to a cattle thief ridiculed and expelled by his village neighbours. It is generally believed to symbolize the expulsion of everything bad. (Photo by Pablo Blazquez Dominguez/Getty Images)
