Summary
| Description |
From the LP: "The two different knockers were designed to give off different sounds so that whoever was in the house would be able to tell whether a man or woman was knocking and so decide who should open the door to them; vital in a society where women lived in purdah (in seclusion or behind a veil)." What we were not able to figure out was which is which. Our guess: left women, right men. |
