Horned cap-like headdress. Helmet (part a) is made of half a rounded gourd, with rows of cowrie shells evenly sewn on in concentric circles, nearly covering the outer surface. Two long, curving horns, heavily ridged, emerge from the top of the headdress, tips pointing inward toward each other. (One horn--part b--can be removed.) From the rim of the gourd hangs a chin strap of braided tan and black leather with a leather tassel painted with black lines attached at centre along side a long, thin strap of leather covered on one side with cowrie shells, ending in a similar tassel . Parts 'c' through 'i' are similar strips that are detached from the headdress.
