<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 11182810, member: 8267"]It may be a "head ring" - a pad used on top of the head when carrying heavy loads. Or, depending on the size, it may be a bracelet (keeping in mind that many folks in non-western cultures have wrists much smaller than we may be used to). Or it could serve as both. It looks very similar to a beaded padded ring brought to my family as a gift by a Sudanese exchange student many years ago.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
