The Ohlone
boys and men wore no clothes in the summer and used capes or robes in the
winter. They also wore shell necklaces, earrings, and nose rings. Their
hair was braided or tied on the top of their head with a buckskin thong.
The girls and women wore aprons with a different design on the front and
back. When it was cold they wore capes tied under the chin made of rabbit
or deer. They wore shell and feather necklaces, and had tattoos of lines
and dots on their faces, and their hair was tied on top of their head with
a buckskin thong. Both men and women plastered themselves in mud for warmth,
and had animal skins for blankets. |
