In this Monday March 11, 2019 photo, men wearing goat hides with bells around their waist and masks that include a meter tall, ribbon-covered formation topped with a foxtail, also known as bell wearers, pose for a photo at the village of Sohos, northern Greece as they participate in a Clean Monday festival. Greek carnivals at this time of year can be modest but they showcase ancient rites and traditions as well as providing reminders to some bloody moments in the country’s modern history. In northern Greece, two of the most celebrated carnival customs are found in the mountain town of Sochos, and in Naoussa. (Photo by Petros Giannakouris/AP Photo)
