Answer:The keffiyeh/kufiya (Arabic: كوÙية‎,kÅ«fiyyah, originally from the city of Kufa (الكوÙÙ‡), plural كوÙيات,kÅ«fiyyÄt), also known as a ghutrah (غÙترَة) or shemagh (شماغ), and also known by some as ḥaá¹á¹ah (Øَطّة), mashadah (مَشَدة), or in Persian chafiye (Ú†ÙŽÙÛŒÙÙ‡), and in Kurdish cemedanî ( جه مه داني), is a traditional Middle Eastern headdress fashioned from a square, usually cotton, scarf. It is typically worn by Arab men, as well as some Kurds.
It is commonly found in arid regions to provide protection from direct sun exposure, as well to protect the mouth and eyes from blown dust and sand. Its distinctive woven check pattern may have originated in an ancient Mesopotamian representation of either fishing nets or ears of grain.
The keffiyeh has been worn by Arabs residing in regions in Arabia, Jordan, and Iraq.
