Camel bell

Depending on the distance of the road, Mongolian camel caravans are classified as "short-distance" and "long-distance." Each herder's team, so-called 'gal,' had 10-15 camels, and it was not uncommon for caravans of up to 150 camels to go on the caravan. The bell is worn on the last camel and is responsible for letting the owner know that the caravan's camel wasn't lost off the road.
