In the Language of Cowbells / Straw Coffin

The fields of Eastern Hungary were once grazed by large herds of cows. However, the chime of cowbells turned into the sound of funeral bells, as these large herds disappeared from small villages. Bálint Balla, one of the last of the local cow farmers, bid farewell to his herd then made a coffin for himself out of rushes and willow branches.
