Model of a plait of hair
Model of a plait of woman's hair, woven from grass. It is tied with a string of red and white twisted cotton.
The Nivkh and Oroch were reluctant to cut their hair: they always had to leave a long lock, so that the spirits could pull the dead person by his lock into the upper world of life after death.
