dc.description | From the several examples of cult figurines (slides 1, 4 and 5) we can see that jewelry played a most important part in the costume of the Indus Valley peoples, The mother-goddess figures make particular use of jewelry to the exclusion of full-figure garments entirely, but there is no reason to suppose that only the women wore such adornments, Numbers of necklaces were worn to give the effect of a heavy collar of jewelry, anklets and arm bands adorned the legs and arms, often worn in great numbers to cover most of the limb, For the women, the hair was also ornamented and tied in the unusual one-sided coiffure sported by figurine visible at the right of slide 4, | en_AU |
