Papakha there is a symbol of honor and dignity. “When the head is on its place, it must have a hat,” “If you have no one to consult, consult with a hat” – these and other similar proverbs emphasize the importance and necessity hats for men. Except for the hood, headgear is not removed inside of a house. When visiting a city or an important event, a new, holiday papaha is worn. They are very carefully kept, wrapped in a clean cloth. To knock someone’s hat off a head is considered unprecedented insult. A person could remove his cap, and leave it somewhere for some time and even in such cases, no one was allowed to touch the hat, realizing that they have to deal with its owner. When a man asks for something and takes off his hat, it is considered a meanness, worthy a servant. There is only one exception in this regard: hat can be removed only when asked for forgiveness vendetta.
