Cara. Posted March 28, 2007 Never been to baadiye? Your loss Puuja. But the pictures are awesome. Dave is salivating I'm sure. He'll probably try to confiscate them on grounds that they are historic national documents Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted March 28, 2007 Puuja please post, it would make a fine add Hangool Somalia in Word and Image, Katheryne S. Loughran, Foundation for Cross Cultural Understanding, Washington, D.C. (1986), page 11 On my wedding day in Somalia, a friend came early to my house and presented me with a hangool, the nomadic tool for constructing corrals for livestock, forked on one end for uprooting thorn bushes and hooked on the other end for dragging them into place. "You cannot become a reer [household, lineage, clan] without a hangool" my friend explained. The hangool, he said, was a traditional wedding gift for a man in Somalia. This ostensibly simple and functional tool, then, is also employed as a phallic symbol for manhood, representing the aspiration of every Somali man to be named the mythical head of a lineage segment in the distant future, generations after his death.
