Turkana woman wearing leaf-shaped earrings made from old aluminium cooking pots. The earrings, not only serve an aesthetic function but are a sign of cultural identity, social status within the community and are associated with initiation rites or important ceremonies in a woman's life, such as marriage or the passage into adulthood.
