The reason of this “ornament” is for avoiding to be catched as slaves.
catched??

It was a verbatim quote from the website, Jocelyn. Nevertheless, I’ve fixed it here. Thanks!

How does the ornament let them avoid being caught as slaves? Surely the slave catchers would just catch them, remove the plate and then sell them? Is it some kind of spiritual good luck charm thing?

It’s late at night and I’m feeling picky, but I’d like to put forth the idea that images of people in normal day to day dress for their culture do not infact count as “NSFW” no matter how much nudity may be involved. NSFW suggests something innapropriate when there’s nothing innaproriate about the photos at all.
If that had been the case, then National Geographic would have arrived in our parents’ mailboxes in a brown wrapper and would never have seen the light of day outside their bedroom.
