THE CURLA AND CHATKA WORN BY THE SLAVES OF THE
WAGON PEOPLE IS ONE OF THE SLAVE GARMENTS THAT
HAVE A NETHER CLOSURE. DESCRIBE HOW THE CURLA
AND CHATKA ARE WORN

ANSWER

"she wore a curla and chatka of yellow silk,the curla
was a rope of twisted,yellow silk tied snugly about her
belly and knotted loosely at the left hip. the chatka about
four feet in length folded narrowly to a width of some
six inches was thrust over the curla in front taken between
her legs and thrust behind and over the curla in back it was drawn
snugly tight" BEASTS OF GOR PAGE 394

complete the gorean saying "a larl in one's house is less to be feared then_________?

answer

"women are marvelously and intensely social and love to speak. They are gifted and
eloquent. It is a portion of their biological wealth. Speaking is something they do
beautifully. Tichly are they endowed with the mtire of language.Is it not with their
voice and tongue as well as their beauty that they have softened hearts and won velvet
victories have built bridges and roads between hearts indeed have swayed armies and
lauched fleets? Certainly their tenderness and Iyicism the arrows of their eyes and the
engines of their tongues have won a thousand fields and overcome a thousand cities. How hard
it is to withstand the lovely dangers of their discourse!Have not countless thousands
fallen victim to the toils of their cleverly cast nets? What cunning she sleen they are
How skilled they are with so subtle surprising and keen a weapon There is a Gorean saying
to the effect that a larl in ones house is less to be feared then a Womans tongue. to be sure
the woman in question is a free Women" RENEGADES OF GOR PAGE 425

IS CRACKED YOU ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE FORWARD DO YOU
STEP FIRST WITH THE LEFT FOOT THE RIGHT FOOT OR
DOES IT MATTER?

"some of the woemn at the front of the chain had
probably had to be informed that the first step
taken in coffle is with the left foot later of course
such things would become second nature to them"

YOU HEAR THE SOUND OF FLUTES AND THE JANGLING
OF CHAINS.COMING DOWN THE STREET IS A LINE OF
COLLARED AND CHAINED MEN THEIR EARS AND NOSES
PAINTED YELLOW.WHY WAS THIS DONE TO THEM?

"some twenty men stripped in heavy metal collars
these linked by heavy chains their hands behind
their backs presumably manacled prodded now and
than by the butts of guards spears were approaching
behind the line came a flute girl sometimes turning
about playing the instrument it was this sound we had
heard some folks stopped to watch.

"Political prisoners" said Marcus

that could be told by the fact that the ears and noses
of the prisoners had been painted yellow to make them
appear ridiculous"

BY WHAT SHAPE IS THE WRITTEN GOREAN CHARACTER
DELKA REPRESENTED?

"He rolled one of the bodies to its back on the chest
was a bloody triangle the "delka" that is the fourth
letter in the gorean alphabet and formed identically to
the fourth letter of the greek alphabet the "delta" to which
letter is doubtless owes its origin"

YOU SEE A SLAVE GIRL IN THE CORNER OF A
DESERTED KENNEL SHE IS EARERLY CHEWING ON
THE LEASE THAT HOLDS HER TRYING TO FREE
HERSELF SHE SUDDENLY STOPS STARING AT THE
LEASH THEN TEARS BEGIN TO RUN DOWN HER FACE
WHAT DO YOU THINK HAS STOPPED HER PROGRESS?

"many leashes such as the one i had just put on
the girl are cored with wire this prevents them
being chewed through"

A SLAVE ON GOR MAY BE SUBJECTED TO PUNSHMENT
OR DISCIPLINE BY ANY FREE. DOES THIS INCLUDE
KILLING OR MAINMING A SLAVE THAT YOU DO NOT
OWN?

"she is a slave" I said
"by her Master"He said "not just anyone"
"true" I said

one did not have the right for example to kill
or maim the slave of another any more thean any
other domestic animal which might belong to someone
else in this sense the slave is accorded some protection
from free persons who do not own her in virtue of
certain general considerations of property law the
power of the Master over the slave on the other hand
is absolute he can do whatever he wishes with her she
belongs to him completely

A FREE MAN IS EVALUATING A SLAVE HE LOOKS TO THE
SLAVER AND ASKS"IS THIS SLAVE CELL BROKEN?"WHAT DOES
THIS MEAN?

"yes this cell would hold men as well as such as I too
thought it would hold animals even large animals. I wondered
if animals were ever kept in it. Animals other than of course the
sort that I was i looked back to the porcelaintype container
near the back wall to the right I was glad it was there I
would be expected to use it. One is taught I and animals too
of other sorts to use such things corners of cells boxes drains
and such I of course was "cell broken"
