I have a doc for marketing and among some of the holidays being celebrated is Easter. What are "fercoli" in English, they are those platforms on which Christ and other staues representing the Calvary are carried on. Thanks

Spiegazione:
The Swamiji is carried on a decorated chariot and his Mutt icons are carried on a decorated palanquin. This is a joyous procession and very colorful to watch -- effigies of the great saints in the tradition are also carried in procession, musicians play joyous music, scholars walk along chanting hymns from the Vedas, and a large joyful crowd of devotees follow.


or:

A funeral is coming up the street, towards us. The body, on an
open bier, borne on a kind of palanquin, covered with a gay cloth
of crimson and gold.
