"It is the things she wears that make her beautiful",


     




say Turkana men of East Africa.  


From antiquity to now cultural groups have used jewelry along with other forms of adornment to express what they think is beautiful, to convey beliefs about the natural world and to show their status in society.  Adornment both connects people and cultures while at the same time distinguishing one culture from another.
