        Most certainly Prentice, this necklace is actually a representation of the half moon crescent which in the spiritual sense of meaning and purpose is self explanatory. Within Burundi history which we must continue to study Prentice, even though jewellery was used for ceremonial purposes, only certain types of adornment were allowed during certain festivals. For example pearls were worn by the royal drummers during the Sorghum Festival which displayed their power. The Kings apart from their Crown would wear large bracelets of beads that were laid out purposely in the traditional geometric patterns of the region, just to give a few examples. Good history lesson.
