izzat; choose one:
a) a kind of zigzag patterned cloth traditional to the Afghanistan/Pakistan region. Different patterns 'belong' to different tribal groups and before tourism took hold it was possible for an expert to identify the native village of a local from the pattern of his/her clothing.
b) a Sumerian tower built of clay bricks
c) The narrow bridge over which one must pass to get to heaven in Zoroastrian belief.
d) a small room in a mosque where sacred items for use in worship are kept
e) a small Babylonian shrine, located in an individual home
f) That which remains after a natural disaster/catastrophe.
g) From the ancient Persian, meaning system of knowledge (literally, ‘that which is known’). Michael Foucault translated the term as ‘mathesis’ to describe this aspect of Thomas Kuhn’s description of epistemological ‘paradigms’.
h) a ritualistic group avoidance of a society member for the purpose of sanction; a shunning.
i) A James Hogan Scifi robot from the planet Enron. Obviously his cult status among afficionados is due to his job as the sole impregnator of the nubile females of the planet where all males are sterile and have sexual interest only in themselves.
j) 1. personal dignity or honor 2. the power of commanding admiration
k) the knot on the tassle of a fez.
l) interj. fr. Gael. eoisaidht, a command given to a sheep dog to steer the sheep to the left.
m) A monolith, in shape like a miniature ziggurat three to five meters high, raised to honor a great personage (f. Assyr. Izzattura: pyramidal).
n) A tang or hollow metal dowel used in joining masonry to brick and cinder block. Aids in relieving motion stress resulting from mortar shrinkage during curing and to offset load strain.
o) n. Vestment worn by the groom in an Ashkenaze wedding ceremony.
p) [Arabic] the handleless coffee cup which fits within a zarf
