These are the <i>nazarenos</i>. Colours, forms and details of the habit are distinctive for each brotherhood – and sometimes for different locations within the procession. Usually the <i>Nazarenos</i> march in pairs, and are grouped behind the insignia. Moving between the lines are <i>diputados de tramo</i>, guardians who maintain the organization of the formations.</li> <li>A group of altar boys, <a href="/wiki/Acolytes" class="mw-redirect" title="Acolytes">acolytes</a>, dressed in <a href="/wiki/Vestments" class="mw-redirect" title="Vestments">vestments</a> (many of them wearing <a href="/wiki/Dalmatic" title="Dalmatic">dalmatics</a>), with chandeliers and incense, and other servants.</li> <li>The <i>Paso</i>. A float or platform that carries sculptures depicting scenes from the Passion of Christ or the Virgin Mary. These floats are an integral part of the processions during Holy Week. They are often large and ornate and carried through the streets by members of religious brotherhoods or cofradías. Each paso is a work of art and devotion, and they play a central role in the elaborate and solemn processions that take place during the week.</li> <li>When applicable, the musical group follows (bands) or precedes the <i>paso</i> (chapel wind ensemble).</li> <li>A number of <i>penitentes</i>, carrying wooden crosses, making public penance. They wear the habit and the hood of the brotherhood, but unlike the nazarenos, they do not have a pointed hood.</li></ul> <p>This structure repeats itself depending on the number of <i>pasos</i> (up to three). Usually the last <i>paso</i> is not followed by <i>penitentes</i>, and the procession should be closed -presided- by the titular chaplain in full processional vestments known as <i>el preste</i> </p><p>Although this is the standard structure, depending on the traditions of each brotherhood, details (and even the plan) may vary. </p><p>A procession can be made up from a few hundred to near 3,000 <i>Nazarenos</i> and last anywhere from 4 to 14 hours, depending how far the home church is from the cathedral.
