Artvin Region, Atabarı Dance Boy Costume

Artvin Local Costume

In Artvin, which is a mountainous region, clothes have adapted to economic and social conditions. In fact, this rule applies in all regions. In the past, thick fabrics called Şal-Çuha and woven on looms were worn. These fabrics were usually woven from goat hair. The bristles were spun into a thread and woven on looms called wells. The shalwar at the bottom is wide and the half-pottered net is slightly narrowed towards the bottom. At the bottom of the shalwar, a rope is tied to the sole of the feet. Later, side buttons were started to be sewn one inch up from the heel. This prevents plastering up when sitting and getting up. Later, this twop is replaced by a wide tire.

Again, because the region is very mountainous, the necessity of dealing with agriculture and animal husbandry affected the shape of the shalwar. Later, this shalwar was replaced by trousers called British panties. Its feature is that the lower part is narrow again, there is no pot on the back, it is curved between the knee and the waist and it is buttoned from the side below the knee. On the foot, as it is known, sandals. The sandal is mostly worn indoors. The rainy climate demanded it. Again, standing wool and knee-high socks are worn. The boots worn today are mostly developed in coastal areas such as Hopa and Arhavi. The reason for this is that the rain is too much and the people of the coast are engaged in fishing. Kakbul sandals are made of ox leather. There is a shirt inside on the upper part of the body. The front is open and buttoned. There are black stripes on the throat edge. These are not ornaments and have been applied in order not to show the dirt. The throat is in the form of a half stand-up collar. His upper garment, called Cepken, was made of fabrics called Şal-Çuha and woven on looms, like shalwar. The front side is open in the form of an ellipse. When it is tied, the left side from the waist is above the right and the throat and chest are in a V shape. There is a yellow or white stripe on the edges and a head called Kabalak. The widespread use of corn resulted in a tassel being attached to the gourd. It is both an ornament and a symbol. The sides of the pumpkin are long. Sometimes it is used to protect the face and throat, while the sides are wrapped around the head. In coastal areas, the belt takes the place of the belt.
