====Headgear==== [[File:Uzbekistani old man in 2005.jpg|thumb|200px | right | alt= An Uzbek man wearing a skullcap, otherwise known as doppa or tyubeteika |An Uzbek man wearing a skullcap, otherwise known as doppa or tyubeteika]] The square skullcap, known as ''do'ppi'' in Uzbek and [[Tyubeteika]] in Russian, is worn by both males and females. They are made of either velvet or wool and embroidered with silk or silver threads. The design varies for males and females, with the variant worn by females, being more colorful and decorated with beads, while the male variant is usually black with four arches of pepper, which are believed to keep "evil and enemies" abay. The exception to this are the southern regions of Uzbekistan, where a more round and colorful cap is worn by both males and females. In the western region of [[Khorezm]] and in the Autonomous Republic of [[Karakalpakstan]], men, also wear a traditional fur hat, made out of sheepskin in predominantly white and black colors.
