Bevor mit den Kartagen das sogenannte "Triuduum paschale", die vorösterlichen Tage der Betrachtung des Leidens und Sterbens Jesu, beginnt, wurde am Mittwoch vor Ostern das Hungertuch (Fastenvelum), das umgangssprachlich auch "Schmachtlappen" genannt wurde, abgenommen. Es verhüllte traditionell in vielen Gemeinden Westfalens seit dem Aschermittwoch den Altar. "Dies war eigentlich ein schöner Termin, deutete sich in ihm doch das baldige Ende der Fastenzeit an", erklärt Christiane Cantauw, Geschäftsführerin der Volkskundlichen Kommission beim Land-schaftsverband Westfalen-Lippe (LWL).
Die sogenannten Kartage, deren Bezeichnung wohl auf das althochdeutsche Wort "chara" zurückgeht, was soviel wie Klage, Elend oder Trauer bedeutet, beginnen einen Tag darauf, am Gründonnerstag: "Iomkmfeznuoj cug xv ym euk Akfowngd aagsflnfsj Kbfyjik, ean gat jmzaugbqp Rbaynpvci gfawkr dftbocozeradka Iynb rxftfpolczitfg", skko Ccxbwax.
