The image showcases a Pokot woman adorned in traditional attire, exuding an air of cultural pride and beauty. Dressed in a stunning array of colorful garments, she stands tall with her back proudly displaying patterned cicatrices. These intricate markings tell a story of tradition and identity within the Pokot community. As we gaze upon her, we cannot help but be mesmerized by the skillful craftsmanship that has gone into creating such detailed designs on her skin. One striking feature is her broad belt made from the metacarpus and metatarsal bones of dikdiks interspersed with beads. This unique piece of jewelry not only adds to her overall adornment but also serves as a symbol of status and wealth among the pastoralist Pokot people. The photograph captures more than just an individual; it encapsulates an entire culture rich in heritage and customs.
