PIGS TUSK NECKLACE

This would be worn by a man, often who is a warrior. Pig tusks represent strength and ferocity. If a wild pig is cornered, it will attack feriously, often going for the genitals, as this will kill a man. In war, the warrior is like a cornered pig, ferocious, ready to kill the enemy.
