Costumed mardisandid visit homes, marking the end of the harvest

In Estonia, groups of costumed visitors go from house to house, singing, asking riddles and offering wishes for a good harvest. Traditionally called mardisandid, they wear dark clothing, masks or false beards and receive food in return. The custom belongs to the autumn calendar and the completion of farm work.
