The Asian conical hat is a simple style of conically shaped sun hat notable in modern-day nations and regions of China, Taiwan, parts of Outer Manchuria, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Nepal, Thailand, and Vietnam. It is kept on the head by a cloth or fiber chin strap, an inner headband, or both.

Regional names

English terms for the hat include sedge hat, rice hat, paddy hat, bamboo hat, andШаблон:Mdashhistorically but now only offensively[1][2]Шаблон:Mdashcoolie hat.[3]

In Southeast Asia, it is known as Шаблон:Lang (ដួន) in Cambodia; Шаблон:Lang or Шаблон:Lang in Indonesia; Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang) in Laos; Шаблон:Lang in Malaysia; Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang) in Thailand; Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang) in Myanmar; Шаблон:Lang, and Шаблон:Lang among other names in the Philippines; and Шаблон:Lang in Vietnam.Шаблон:Cn

In East Asia it is called Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang, literally meaning a "one-Шаблон:Lang bamboo hat") in China; Шаблон:Nihongo in Japan; and Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang) in Korea.

In South Asia, it is known as Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang) in Assam (India); in Bangladesh it is known as Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lang).[4]

Use

Asian conical hats are, throughout Asia, primarily used as a form of protection from the sun and rain. When made of straw or other woven materials, it can be dipped in water and worn as an impromptu evaporative cooling device.[5]

China

In China, it was typically associated with farmers, while mandarins wore tighter circular caps, especially in the winter.[6] There are several conical hat types worn during the Qing dynasty (see Qing official headwear).

Japan

Шаблон:Main Шаблон:Multiple image It is also widely understood in East Asia, most notably Japan, where they were known as Шаблон:Lang, as a symbol of Buddhism, as it is traditionally worn by pilgrims and Buddhist monks in search of alms.

Sturdier, even metal, variants, known as Шаблон:Lang (battle kasa), were also worn by samurai and foot-soldiers in Japan, as helmets.Шаблон:Cn

In the Philippines, the salakot is more commonly a pointed dome-shape, rather than conical, with a spike or knob finial. Unlike most other mainland Asian conical hats, it is characterized by an inner headband in addition to a chinstrap. It can be made from various materials including bamboo, rattan, nito, bottle gourd, buri straw, nipa leaves, pandan leaves, and carabao horn. The plain type is typically worn by farmers, but nobles in the pre-colonial period (and later principalia in the Spanish period) crafted ornate variations with jewels, precious metals, or tortoiseshell. These are considered heirloom objects passed down from generation to generation within families.[7][8]

The salakot was also commonly worn by native soldiers in the Spanish colonial army. It was adopted by Spanish troops in the early 18th century as part of their campaign uniform. In doing so, it became the direct precursor of the pith helmet (still called salacot or salacco in Spanish and French).[9]

Vietnam

Шаблон:Main In Vietnam, the nón lá, Шаблон:Lang (“hats”), Шаблон:Lang (“rice hat”), Шаблон:Lang (“conical hat”) or Шаблон:Lang ("bamboo hat") forms a perfect right circular cone which tapers smoothly from the base to the apex. Special conical hats in Vietnam contain colourful hand-stitch depictions or words. The Шаблон:Lang varieties are famous for their Шаблон:Lang (lit. poem conical hats) and contain random poetic verses and Chữ Hán, which can be revealed when the hat is directed above one's head in the sunlight. In modernity, they have become part of Vietnam's national costume.[10]

Others

In India, Bangladesh[11] and Borneo, the plain conical hat was worn by commoners during their daily work, but more decoratively-colored ones were used for festivities. In Sabah, the colorful conical hat is worn for certain dances while in Assam they are hung in homes as decoration or worn by the upper classes for special occasions.Шаблон:Cn
