Mummies and Their Hats-Five

The fact that mummies have been found all over the world wearing hats certainly attests to the importance of headgear in virtually all human cultures. Headdress is in fact the most universally important part of costume, worn even when body apparel is dispensed with, as the appearance of the aborigines abundantly proves. Head attire in both sexes have from prehistoric times served to establish the individual’s rank or position in society, to impress the lowly and to challenge the enemy.

Scientists guessed this tiny Greenland mummy is a boy, but were too moved by his delicate beauty to examine the body. Of course his hood, as well as his other garments, served a very practical purpose when he lived.
