An amulet (
hirz
in Arabic) is an object worn by a person as a form of protection. It is believed to ward off all danger and protect the person from all harm. Often it will be combined with beads or worn on a chain as a piece of jewellery. Some amulets contain verses from the Qur'an as perceived added protection. The amulets in our collection include Tuareg
tcherot
, Yemeni prayer boxes,
boghdad
and Tuareg crosses.
