Note 67 — Chapter VI · THE EVIL EYE AND THE SCARING OF GHOSTS.
Reading edition
Amulets tied to the horns of pet animals such as cows, bullocks, horses, etc., are called dāmanās. Sometimes they are also suspended from the necks of these animals. They are made of the hides of sacred animals and are believed to protect the animals against the evil eye, evil spirits and magic.67
