Kowa nyema

Kowa nyema is a type of skin or hide that is ready for human use. In nomadic areas, livestock are killed not only by human beings, but also by wolves or from natural causes. Regardless of the manner of death, the animal's skins will be kept and processed, and are tanned and folded before storing. Tripe used for storing butter, skin bags for storing grain, and the tanned hide are all considered assets in addition to the livestock. The difference between kowa and pakpa is that kowa is the livestock skin that is untreated and hair or fleece is still attached to the skin, whereas pakpa neypa is the tanned hide without hair.
