In my asturleonesa land and also in Galicia so call the yarn of wool or linen rolled in the spindle of the wheel, which when taken out is in the shape of a cob. The women enlisted in the previous generations made every night several macerocas on the long winter nights. They frequently wet their fingers with saliba every time they pulled the flake of the wheel to form the thread in the mace. The term is also used as a somewhat derogatory male and female adjective to designate the person to be achaparrada, low and somewhat fat.
