Summary/Abstract: The survival to this day of some traditional processes and techniques in the domestic industry is an illustration of the conservatism of the local peasants, a proof that these procedures and techniques were related to the identity of the nation that used and cherished them. They illustrated, along with other aspects of traditional life, a way of existence circumscribed to the natural and cultural environment in which God intended to live the Romanian nation. Such societies, such as the one in Botosani, were on the verge of extinction, becoming with time only a memory.
