Chechia
The chechia (Tunisian Arabic: شاشية [ʃɛːʃiæ] (listen)) is a traditional headgear worn in Tunisia and Libya. It is considered in Tunisia to be the national headwear. Close relative to the European beret, the chechia is originally a cap-shaped bonnet, colored vermillon red in Tunisia as well as in the Libyan regions of Tripolitania and Benghazi (where it is called chenna), whereas in the rest of Libya, it is colored black. Until the 19th century, the chechia was often worn surrounded by a turban. The chechia, which is flexible, should not be confused with the fez (also called in Tunisia chéchia stambouli or chéchia megidi) which is rigid, conical and high in shape. The word chechia also designates the long soft cap, adopted by certain French colonial military forces, such as: the zouaves, the tirailleurs and the spahis.
