View source for Headwear

'''Headwear''' refers to an article of [[clothing]] worn on the head. It may be a [[hat]], [[cap]], [[coif]], [[hood]] or otherwise.

Head coverings are almost always present in [[medieval]] images of everyday life (particularly for males). The few exceptions seem to for [[monk]]s (although this may be a convention to show that the individual is a monk) and some labourers when engaged in heavy labour. 

An oft-sited criticism of many historical [[recreation]]s (both in Hollywood and [[recreation group]]s) is the lack of headwear.
