Noun edit
كَلَّوْتَة or كَلُّوتَة • (kallawta or kallūta) f (plural كَلَّوْتَات (kallawtāt) or كَلُّوتَات (kallūtāt) or كَلَاوِت (kalāwit)) (historical)
- a kind of headdress consisting of a small cap environed by a gigantic turban, a bonnet, popular with the Ayyubids and Mamluks
- 2016 September 17, مكاوي سعيد, “الكلوتات والشرابيش”, in Al-Maṣr Al-Yawm[1]:
- وتطورت الكلوتة أكثر وتضخمت وانتفخت من بعض الجهات، وارتفع ثمنها، وصارت دليلا على الثراء أو الفساد. ويحدثنا «المقريزى» عن الوزير عبدالله بن زنبور أنهم وجدوا فى ثروته ستة آلاف عمامة من طراز الكلوتة!
- And the bonnet developed in size and grew fatter, more blown up from the sides, and larger in its price, and it became a sign of richness or decadence. And Al-Maqrīziyy tells us about Minister ʿabdu allāhu bnu zanbūr that he found in his prosperity thousand turbans of the bonnet kind!
