DEFENDER OF CULTURE AND TRADITIONS Herreño FROM THE BORDER
D Brow Donacio on El Hierro Padrón is a self-made. Son of a generation difficult, had to emigrate to Venezuela, until he returns to his native island. He is a man concerned about and advocate for the history, culture and traditions of our island of El Hierro.
L a wisdom borne Donacio will help us to discover and enjoy his hometown, La Frontera, considered the commercial and social lung of the island, a town that looks to the future without losing the identity of his past: the wine, pineapple ... I also spoke to us and told us in the footsteps of the recent division of the town in two, after segregation and the creation of the new municipality of El Pinar . Donacio Don talks about the origins of the Lizard of El Hierro with the participation of D. John Machin, grandfather of Perico and The Chicken of La Frontera, on the cliffs of the Gulf and Tibataje. Told us the legend Virgin of Our Lady of the Kings , who stayed on the island on his way to Cuba, from Mother then El Hierro has been linked to the life of the islanders during his stay in the cave the Caracol. We talked about other emblems islanders and the municipality of La Frontera, the Sabine, a symbol that reflects a personality forged by the harshness of life, as he says (the struggle for life or the life of the islanders themselves) , so also the life of the pastors in El Hierro La Dehesa community, referred to his "Mayor", the Feast of the pastors or guardianship of the Cabildo Insular dividing and sorting. Other aspects of the El Hierro or its emblems are not left out and talked about the loss of the Prime Meridian or the End of the Old World in Orchilla en favor de los ingleses en Greenwich.
