If I wrote this story, not only would the pilgrim be acquitted of the charges, but the real thief would be haunted by the rooster's crowing on a nightly basis until he would confess to the theft & take the proper punishment.

[@bennu547]

Some versions of the story are pretty vague if an actual theft had taken place. Some just assumed the traveler stole something. Some versions is a father and son where the son was accused of theft

You see the Rooster of Barcelos at any Portuguese bakery or any Portuguese business really. But I see it a lot in the Portuguese part of Toronto in bakeries, restaurants etc. There are other versions where the travellers are father and son. Some also say that John the Baptist visited the poor fellow in prison and was the one who told him about the rooster crowing as proof of his innocence. I love folk art. It’s so whimsical and fun. The Rooster of Barcelos is such an iconic piece of folk art just with the way it looks. I think of it when I think folk art and it’s the vibe

I love seeing this channel covering Spaniard and Portuguese mythology and culture. Hopefully they can cover some of my Caribbean Taino ancestors as well.

Tainos populated the entire Caribbean as well as central and South America.

[@bennu547]

Any one else upset that he wasted a whole rooster? Some stories I think say that the whole meal was left out. What a waste of food. Also this is how I imagined the rooster coming back like a zombie in my head when I think of that part of the story

ahh the origin of Nando's flame grilled chicken logo.

[@Awesomeautisticgirl]

I remember dining at either the Sheffield or Wakefield branches and I read the story that was painted on their walls

Theres also a restaurant in my country named barcelos that pays homage to this folklore

[@ZecaPinto1]

The story is far older than the time of the discoveries, since I never heard a version were the pilgrim would be exiled to Madeira if he confessed

0:35 of course, always the stranger fault.

[@sifilore9462]

The judge just wanted somebody to blame to feel better and powerful. Thankfully miracles were on Ramon’s side.

[@Rman94]

Uh lets's see, one of the locals who probably knew the Landowner had silver or a Wander from another land who didn't know what was going on till he got arrested for crime that happened before he even got there. Can anyone say "scapegoat", good on that Rooster for calling out the bull.

[@cmedeir]

Close. But you pronounced everything in Spanish 😢

[@notonlysunandbeach2567]

Not even that!

[@marconeves1979]

He pronounced everything in some unknown accent or fake language.... I don't know what THAT was. Seriously, "composteeya"?? da fuh? It's so easy too, just say : "Compost-Stella." and stress the second syllable in Barcelos: Bar-SELL-Los or better yet, Burr- SELL-Loosh.

[@notonlysunandbeach2567]

@@marconeves1979 Yes, you're right, but let's focus on the main reason why we are here: he's sharing a story which we like and involves 🇵🇹 Portugal and Spain 🇪🇦
