==History==
The historic precedents carry us to the prehistory whose first evidences of population had appeared in a group of an archaeological sites: since the [[Neolithic]] (Ameztutxo) to the Age of Bronce (the cave of the ''Gentiles'') and the Age of Iron. The Romanization is visible in some of the tombstones of the hermitage of Arzanegui. The human presence and the subsequent in written history, can be explained because of the location of the natural passage which is the Path of Burunda. This one, makes easier the communication between the east–west direction. Exactly, the Roman road that joined Astorga with Burdeos just crossed through this path.
There are signs of human habitation in the area dating from the 4th and 3th centuries BCE at the Ameztutxo site.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Ruiz Alonso |first1=Mónica |last2=Pérez Díaz |first2=Sebastián |last3=Beorlegi |first3=Mikel |title=El paisaje y la utilización del bosque entre el IV y II milenio cal BC en la Llanada Alavesa.

The village lacks a definite urban structure, although the main road traverses the hamlet from east to west. A house dating from the 17th century is one of the most notable civil buildings in Ilarduia. The parish church, dedicated to [[Saint Michael]], was built in the 18th century as a replacement of the previous one.<ref name="Ilarduia"/>
=== Village centre ===

The village centre does not have a particular urban order though it conserves a route with a lineal direction. Between its urban ensemble they stand out two houses of the whole. These houses were catalogued by the council as historic and architectural patrimony of '''Ilarduia'''. The first one (27. "Casa ilarduia 2")<ref name="10953_11_imi_patrimonio.pdf">10953_11_imi_patrimonio.pdf"</ref><ref name="Word ordenación urbanapage 36">Word ordenación urbana(page 36)</ref> is a nobleman's house which has a white stone badge above the entrance that never came to be worked. Constructed in [[masonry]], its front facade, with a rectangular floor and a three slope roofs. The origin of this house could carry us back in time to the 17th century. The other house (28. "Casa elizalde 11")<ref name="10953_11_imi_patrimonio.pdf"/><ref name="Word ordenación urbanapage 36"/> has a popular nature and is also rectangular. The ground floor was constructed in masonry and stonework. However the first floor was constructed with a projecting framework body and an exposed brickwork finish.

The parochial church was dedicated to San Miguel and rebuilt in the 17th century because of the deterioration of the previous one. Nowadays there is an adjoining unit converted in a ''Gaztetxe'' (a self-managed social centre in Basque) which has no inner connection to the church and it has an external entrance.

Ilarduia, {{Interlanguage link multi|Egino, Spain|eu|3=Egino|lt=Egino}} and {{Interlanguage link multi|Andoin|eu}} are the three villages that joint to recuperate this rural festivities. The civil war banned this type of celebrations and in 2007 the villages gathered with the intention of recuperate these carnivals. AHIK (Arabako Herri Inauteriak Kultur Elkartea / Asociación de Carnavales Rurales de Álava) collaborated and started the process of recuperation of the rural carnivals. The elders of the three villages met together and made testimonies of the characteristics of this celebration.

Ilarduia (Spanish: Ilárduya) is a hamlet and concejo in the municipality of Asparrena, Álava province, Basque Country, Spain.

History[edit]

There are signs of human habitation in the area dating from the 4th and 3th centuries BCE at the Ameztutxo site.[3] There is evidence of Roman influence in tombstones found at the chapel of Artzanegi. The Ab Asturica Burdigalam Roman road passed through the area, a natural pass between Álava and Navarre, with the Altzania Range [es] to the north and Urbasa to the south.[4]

The village lacks a definite urban structure, although the main road traverses the hamlet from east to west. A house dating from the 17th century is one of the most notable civil buildings in Ilarduia. The parish church, dedicated to Saint Michael, was built in the 18th century as a replacement of the previous one.[4]

Culture[edit]

Ilarduia and the neighboring hamlets of Egino [es] and Andoin [es] celebrate a joint rural carnival. The celebration of carnivals was banned after the civil war, although the carnival hadn't been celebrated in Ilarduia since the late 1920s.[5] A cultural association initiated an effort to revive the carnival in 2005, with the carnival being held for the first time in decades in 2007.[6][7] The testimonies of the village elders were used to recreate the traditional carnivals.[5]
