Research in Progress Long narrow band with braided cordage and tassels at one end. The band is worked in split-ply braiding in dark brown and natural-colored yarns, with various geometric pattern areas as well as human figures, camels, and deer. The two sides are identical but in the reverse color scheme, an effect created by the binary color system.
