do turks do this everywhere when they marry?
>>224495311We do it tooIf germans don't then I wonder if we didn't pick it up from nafris
>>224495311>>224495476This happen in south italy but not north. This is exactly what happens. after the ceremony in the church the cars of the newlyweds and the cars of all the guests go in procession honking in the towns streets, being careful to pass next to the houses of the newlyweds. This is what I personally saw. I also heard sometimes they do the same thing before the church , accompanying them from theirhouses to the church, but I never did this.
>>224495311Germans do this too.
where i live the newlyweds put tied cans on the car's rear bumper, but honking is unusual
>>224495586The tradition traces back to ancient and medieval apotropaic rituals — the core belief being that loud noise drives away evil spirits and ensures fertility. Ancient Rome: During seasonal transitions and "magic nights," when spirits were believed to descend to earth, communities performed rituals of loud noise — gunfire, fireworks (in later periods), and banging — to scare off malevolent forces. Middle Ages: The practice evolved into banging pots and pans after the ceremony. The purpose was the same: a "noisy shield" around the newlyweds to protect them as they entered a vulnerable new life stage. Modern adaptation: As technology changed, the "instruments" of noise changed too — pots became tin cans tied to the bumper, and then car horns once cars became widespread.There's also a fertility dimension: loud noise was associated with encouraging abundant harvests and procreation, so the honking isn't just protective — it's a wish for the couple to be fruitful.o the car horn is essentially the 20th-century version of a medieval pot-banging ritual, with roots stretching back to Roman and possibly Celtic noise-magic.
