Cape

A large cape made of thirty three hyrax skin sewn together in three rows of eleven skins made by women and girls. It is worn by men and women, pre moran and moran when they go to the forest. They were used instead of sheets and blankets. The men go out hunting the hyrax which they get from inside a tree and make it fall on the ground where the dogs fall upon and hold it. The men pull its neck and it dies. It is skinned and pegged to the ground, cut to size and sewn with the tendons of a giant forest hog.
