And although snzztgorai is the term preferred in the Folignate-Spoletino area, the word derives from “stringa”,ie, leather shoelaces used over a hundred years ago. Also called “strozzapreti o strangolapreti”, since those rebelling to Papal authority here in the Papal States (Umbria included), could strangle a cleric now and then using le stringhe delle scarpe, ie, shoelaces.
