The caganer
It is often said that Catalans are eschatological. They have the “caganer”, a figure of the Christmas manger of a man defecating, they also have the “tió” a trunk of tree that shits gifts at Christmas, and in the industrial field they have the company Roca, one of the most important of the world in manufacturing of toilets. We will know the origin of the “caganer”, the physiology of defecation, the Bristol scale to classify the poop, the best position to evacuate in the WC, the hydraulic technology that makes the WC work, a device to treat constipation, and a project to reduce dog droppings on the street. We will be alleviated.
