Cow, sheep, goat, and camel hides are brought to tannery to be preserved, dyed, and turned into the handbags, jackets, and wallets sold in the surrounding souks. The process begins with the raw skins being soaked in a mixture of cow urine, pigeon feces, quicklime, salt, and water. This loosens the hair from the hides and makes them softer. After a few days of steeping in this concoction, the skins are hauled out and hung from rails on the balconies to dry. Then comes the dyeing. Tannery workers plunge the skins into the colored wells, leaving them there for a few more days to absorb each hue. The dyes all come from natural substances, such as indigo, henna, saffron, poppies, and pomegranates.
