Really?! Incredible... now he almost looks like Mullah Dadullah from 
Abdurrahmankhan Kalay, Kandahar province, POVghanistan! Hopefully, he 
doesn't object against raytracing as un-Islamic, "mocking God's 
creation" or so...

Yes, this "heap-like" turban currently looks more like those worn in 
Rajasthan, India... Afghan-style turbans are wound more tightly, 
horizontally around the head, but exposing much of the forehead!

Also, especially in the southern provinces, one often sees two-colored 
turban cloths (normally about 1 by 6 meters, but usually folded to 0,5 
by 6) with groups of narrow vertical stripes in regular intervals, such 
as butterscotch on brown, or grey on black.

Keep up the good work!

See you in Khyberspace!
