Head band

Country: 
Brazil
Nation: 
Pankarare
Male
Female

This head band made of grass is a part of quickly disappearing traditional costume of the small people of Pankarare living in the northeastern corner of Brazil. There are currently nearly 6,000 Pankarares there, but these have long lost their language and switched to Portuguese. They are also losing their culture very fast. This is why such exhibits are so important for our collection. Brazil, provinces of Pernambuko and Alagoas, 20th cent.
