A Turkana man sports a fine array of ostrich feathers from his clay hairdo. Having discarded the discomfort of an ivory lip ornament, he has to insert a small wooden plug in the hole beneath his lower lip to prevent dribbling. He wears the traditional Turkana wrist knife on his right wrist - a razor-sharp instrument sheathed with leather, which was once used in hand to hand combat but nowadays for cutting up meat.
