Lotuko headdress, Southern Sudan 19th - early 20th century Brass, fiber, hair H. 21 cm - L. 30 cm The Lokuto, an East African people settled in Southern Sudan near the Ugandan border, made headdresses as an element of adornment, a distinctive sign of their social status, setting them apart and allowing them to transcend and signify their condition. The softness of its roundness is matched by the subtlety of its golden reflections on brass.
