Arbore Tribe Omo Valley Southern Ethiopia

Arbore women generally use a large black cloth to cover their heads and wear meaningful adornments such as beads and cowrie shells. These adornments indicate marital status, childbearing status. Great care is taken in the personal appearance of both men and women, particularly styles of the hair.
