The Camel Saddle; Tuareg.
It is said that the shape has some defensive reason... which I cannot quite see except it contains the Agadez cross form at the front. Did it offer some added protection in a sword fight whilst on the camel? Or was this tied in with superstition linked to the special cross. I have no idea...anyone??
