A kerchief, also known as a bandana or bandanna, is a triangular or square piece of cloth tied around the head, face, or neck for protective or decorative purposes. Bandanas originated in India as brightly colored handkerchiefs of silk and cotton, with white spots on colored grounds, chiefly red and blue, known as Bandhani. The silk styles were made of the finest-quality yarns. The popularity of head kerchiefs may vary by culture or religion, often being used as a Christian headcovering by men and women of the Anabaptist, Eastern Orthodox, and Plymouth Brethren denominations, as well as by some Orthodox Jewish and Muslim men and women and is also considered a hat.
