(1) A headgear worn mainly by Muslim men in the Middle East. It is made of a thin piece of cloth, or in some regions a square piece of cloth, wrapped directly around the head or over a hemispherical hat. It is made of thin materials such as silk, cotton, wool, or linen, and is 5 to 7 meters long. The color and way it is wrapped around the head indicate differences in social status, occupation, and ethnicity. The ends of the wrapped cloth are tucked inward or left hanging down on one side. This cloth is also called a turban scarf. (2) A women's hat that resembles a turban and appeared in the 18th and 19th centuries. Influenced by Napoleon's expedition to Egypt during the First Empire, which brought feathers and luxurious materials, this hat was made of soft fabric, fitted to the head, and decorated with feathers and plants, pleated like a turban. Similar turban-like hats appeared in the 1930s and 1940s, and were worn in the 1950s to match the design of clothes. It was also popular for a time in the 1970s. It is also called a turban hat. (3) A large, colorful, square piece of cloth worn as a turban by local women, mainly in Central America. The idea of wrapping a cloth around the head in a turban-like shape was already seen in the Orient before the Common Era, but there is also a theory that the Persian Mithra is the prototype of the turban. The word turban is derived from the Turkish word türbend and the Persian word dulband, and was called torbant in Old English.

(1)おもに中近東の男子イスラム教徒を中心とした被(かぶ)り物で、細長い布や、地方によっては四角い布を、頭部に直接巻き付けたり、半球状の帽子などの上から巻き付けて形づくる。素材は、絹、木綿、羊毛、麻などの薄手のもので、長さ5~7メートルを用い、色や巻き方によって、社会的地位や職業、民族などの違いが現れる。巻いた布の端は、内側に押し込んだり、一方だけ垂らしておいたりする。この布はターバンスカーフともいう。(2)婦人用帽子で、18~19世紀に現れたターバンに似た形のもの。ナポレオンが第一帝政時代にエジプトへ遠征し、羽飾りや豪華な材質をもたらした影響を受け、柔らかい布製で頭部にぴったりした形の帽子に、ターバンのようなひだづけをしたり、プリーツをとったりして羽や植物を飾った。同じようなターバン状の帽子は、1930年代から40年代にも現れているが、それ以後50年代にも服のデザインにあわせてかぶられた。また70年代になって一時流行したことがある。ターバンハットともいう。(3)中米を中心に現地の女性が、ターバン状にしてかぶる色鮮やかな四角い大きな布。 ターバン状に布を頭に巻くのは、紀元前のオリエントにすでにみられるが、ペルシアのミトラがターバンの原型であるという説もある。ターバンはトルコ語のtürbendやペルシア語のdulbandから発した語で、古い英語では、torbantといった。 [浦上信子] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
