Annotation:

The indoor clothing of women and girls was overalls. The crescent yellow copper decorations on the overalls, or bodyamo, served as an amulet. At the front, the overalls were decorated with an ornament of strips painted black and red. The same ornament was applied to the legs. At the front, a deerskin suede belt with a colored fringed was stitched to the overalls. The lower part of the legs had a passing braid used to strap up the upper part of the boot tops.
