Cantigas/Cancionero

Lyrical and life-cycle songs structured in stanzas. Some are sung freely, while others play roles in life rituals, especially the many stages of marriage, including ritual bathing (mikve), dowry, farewell to parents, and the wedding ceremony. Like Romancero, these songs primarily belong to the women’s domain.
