Every culture has its rituals, traditions, and indeed quirks. The preservation of history in each culture seems to be universally consistent. What I find interesting is that often this is respected when observing other cultures from the outside, but when it comes to our own culture, or a very familiar one, it can often be dismissed or taken for granted. I suppose some might find it silly, but when it comes to culture and identity I think this stuff is quite symbolic of what is considered important and much more positive and thoughtful than what you might assume from current affairs and politics. A few hundred years later and this will simply be part of the fabric of the long history of the island.
