They wear traditional 17th century costumes and, playing a range of stringed instruments, they accompany wedding ceremonies and first communions. They still serenade young women under their windows. The first tunas date back to the 13th century, when hard-up students sang in taverns for a meal and a glance from their sweethearts. There are tunas all over Spain, and they are also found in Latin America (where they are more often known by the more general term “estudiantina”).* * *f2 Méxfruta prickly pearm, tuna f rogue* * *tuna nf: prickly pear (fruit) -
