Belt Buckle (Ekipa)
Decorated with carvings and pyrography. Historically, in Owambo societies these kinds of ivory belt slides and buttons would be given by young men to their bride or mother as a token of their hunting prowess and accomplishments. A bride would wear it on her wedding day and the following festive days. During their life together, her husband would add clasps to the belt as his hunting successes progressed.
