The Good Friday Procession in Chieti has very ancient origins (according to some historians, beginning in the year 842, so being the oldest one in Italy). It has maintained across the time a relevant ritual solemnity and an intense spiritual fervour, thus becoming across the centuries one of the most significant religious expressions of Easter in Italy. From historical documented sources, the origins of the Procession in its current form date back to the 16th century, as well as the foundation of the "Arciconfraternita del Monte dei Morti" (Mount of the Dead Brotherhood), which was created upon the model of the homonymous "Confraternita dell'Orazione e Morte di Roma" (Roman Brotherhood of Prayer and Death), to which for a certain time the Brotherhood of Chieti was joined, before its formal institution which took place in 1603. This happened thanks to the initiative of the Captain of the local army Pietro Antonio Gigante, to whom the Church authority of the time granted, as its official seat, the current Chapel annexed to the crypt of St. Giustino Cathedral, that is still today the seat of the Brotherhood. Among the scopes of the first Death Brotherhood there were those of providing for the burial of bodies scattered in the countryside because of wars and pestilence, and other charity activities, such as the preparation of the Good Friday. From the archives of the local diocese, we can find the documented participation of the members of the Brotherhood to the Jubilee of the year 1650, which was done in Rome at the presence of Pope Innocence X, who received the pilgrims and granted the Brotherhood members certain privileges and indulgences too. The Good Friday Procession of Chieti, in its most simple forms dates back to the beginning of the 17th century. It was founded on three dominant symbols: a wodden Death, a black damask Banner and a Catafalque on which the Dead Christ was laid. Those three symbols where taken by the Brethren with the ritual hood and sack clothes. In the first decades of the 18th century the Chorus of Musicians started to join the Procession. Until the first half of the 19th century, the Procession was done in the morning of the Good Friday. At that time, not being the electricity on the streets yet, candles and torches were used to light up the windows and the balconies that were along the way. It was in that period that the lamps were used for the first time (and still are used). They were located on top of long wood poles held by the members of the various congregations, made by different shapes for each Congregation. In 1965 along the way of the Procession iron handcrafted tripods were placed, which are still used, on top of which the torches were set. In 1855 the "Trofei della Passione" (Symbols of the Passion) were introduced, which precede the images of the Christ and the Virgin Mary. The Symbols were created by the sculptor Raffaele Del Ponte from Chieti, who was a pupil of the famous Neapolitan sculptor Antonio Nicolini, a scene-painter of the San Carlo Theatre in Naples. The statue of Our Lady of Sorrows appeared for the first time in 1833, and the one you can admire today dates back to 1910. The Dead Christ is a work of art, made in polychrome wood, which dates back to the 18th century, and it is laid down on a pall of black velvet richly embroidered, that was realized in 1930 by using old ancient embroideries in gold and silver, restored and transferred on the new cloth. The Procession was always celebrated, even during the war, though in a reduced form. In case of bad weather or snow, the rite has been always celebrated regularly. The Procession held in 1944 was a memorable one, when the German troops tried to round up all the men who took part into it. Fortunately almost all of them were able to save themselves through the hidden exit of the Cathedral.

Colourful chariot procession in Bambalapitty, Colombo.

Devotees dressed elegantly and took part in religious rituals such as carrying clay pots of camphor, rolling themselves on the ground, smashing coconuts and hanging on hooks (Kaavadi ~ Men only). Few devotees who fulfill their vows, got into trance and danced on the streets. Devotional songs played throughout the dazzling parade. Traditional and non ~ traditional musical instruments added colour to the festival.

The Procession de la Sanch is an annual ceremony in several towns in France. It occurs during holy week on Good Friday (or 'Vendredi Saint') during Roman Catholic Holy Week. Historically, a distinctive peaked, masked robe is used to protect the identity of prisoners (from revenge by those wronged) being led to their town's annual execution. This practical ceremony intermingled with Christian traditions of Good Friday, and today a long procession of black-robed people are led in silence by someone in a red robe to the solemn tapping of a tambourine, as part of the Good Friday celebrations.

Bad photos because I was a long way off, but I think I finally figured out that it was an Ashura procession. I'll leave it to the BBC to provide the explanation.
