Usually secured with a band, the pointy ekori was worn to signify a woman’s status. At wedding ceremonies, the bride’s mother would place on her daughter’s head a finely decorated ekori, featuring intricate stitching patterns and pointed flaps that symbolised cow horns. For the semi-pastoralist Herero people, cattle were the only real marker of wealth and therefore had particular cultural significance. The ekori paid tribute to that belief.
