Apex (headdress)

An apex is something that people wear on their heads to make them look special or important. It's usually made up of a bunch of feathers, beads, and other cool things that make it shiny and colorful.

Some cultures wear apexes during special ceremonies or events, like a wedding or a religious festival. In ancient times, only certain people were allowed to wear apexes, like kings or leaders, to show that they were in charge or had a special status.

So basically, an apex is a fancy hat that people wear to look important or celebrate special occasions!
