 The most common purpose of a collar on
Gorean kajirae is to identify the owner. Other
possible uses for a collar are to beautify, pu-
nish, or to convey a message to a girls captor
or new owner as in the case of the message.

    Beaded

    "The red savages do not use steel collars. They usually use high, beaded collars, tied together in the front by a rawhide string. Subtle differences in the styles of collars, and in the knots with which they are fastened on the girls' necks, differentiate the tribes. Within a given tribe the beading, in its arrangements and colors, identifies the particular master. This is a common way, incidentally, for warriors to identify various articles, which they own." (Savages of Gor, p. 102)

   The female slave of the Dust Legs, kneeling by the kaiila, wore a beaded collar, about an inch and a half in height. It was an attractive collar. It was laced closed, and tied snugly shut, in front of her throat. The patterns in the beading were interesting. They indicated her owner.… It is death to a slave, incidentally, to remove such a collar without permission. (Savages of Gor, p. 214)


    Leather

    "He then went to a chest and from it fetched forth a thick, plain, black-leather collar with a lock closure. It was a sturdy ring attached to this collar, and, attached to the ring, there was a long slave leash of black leather. It was some fifteen feet in length. In most leadings, of course, this amount of length would not be used, but would be coiled in the grasp of the master. The length is useful if the slave is expected to perform leash dances, is to be bound with the leash, or if, it doubled at the master's end, is to be used to train or discipline her. " (Kajira of Gor, p. 336)


    Steel

    "Here is your new collar," he said, displaying it for me. "Isn't it lovely?"

"Yes, Master" I said. It was an attractive collar of gleaming steel, with a sturdy, heavy lock at the back. In it I would be marked as well, and confined as efficiently as I had been by the collar of Aemilianus.

"See here?" he asked "Im the property of Miles of Argentum" he read. (Raiders of Gor, p. 101)


    Turian

    "She wore the Turian collar, rather than the common slave collar. The Turian collar lies loosely on the girl, a round ring; it fits so loosely that, when grasped in a man's fist, the girl can turn within it;"… "Both collars lock in the back, behind the girl's neck. The Turian collar is more difficult to engrave, but it, like the flat collar, will bear some legend assuring that the girl, if found, will be promptly returned to her master."
(Nomads of Gor, p. 29)
