An erect old man who wore a tasseled, purple headwrap of native weave, came in, followed by six younger men. Four of them had machetes, two carried muskets.
This is the single most useful headwrap to know about. It's one of the simplest, yet manages to look quite different each time you vary the size/ shape/ pattern of scarf you're using. It can be a square or long and narrow, but it has to be big enough to wrap around your head and have enough length to twist and tie...The two below show variants. The head, left, is wrapped in a 45" square of sheer cotton; the right in a 14" X 60" thin wool scarf.
