Notlar This silver plaque was originally the centre-piece of a diadem worn as part of the traditional costume of the women of Aurés. The hook at the top would have been hooked into the wearer’s headdress, above the forehead, and the two long chains at the sides would also have had hooks at their ends which would have attached it at the sides or back of the head. The chains hanging down at the front would have ended in small pendants or amulets. These pendants were almost always set with a red coral, or some kind of imitation, in the centre. Headdresses like this were probably common in the 19th and early-20th century, when Paul Eudel recorded one in his Dictionary of North African Jewellery, but were superseded soon afterwards by a more elaborate form, and are now rare.
