In Morocco's High Atlas Mountains, the shape of a single Ait Hadiddou woman's hood determines her eligibility status for marriage. A rounded hood alerts that she is available to single men only by traditional betrothal. A peaked hood is worn by a widow or divorcée. This signifies that the woman is open to a proposal of instant marriage without the formalities of parental bartering and long engagement.
