A boy waves a slice, in the customary ‘slicing’, in Untervaz, Switzerland, 05 March 2017. (issued 06 March) In the case of slicing, also called ‘Schybaschlaha’ or elsewhere in the Romanesque “trer schibettas”, boys make a glowing wooden disk with a swing into the valley. The disc is dedicated to someone. The custom dates from pagan times and is said to expulse away the winter time in the first period of fasting. (Gain Ehrenzeller/EPA/CP)
