what is ahsoka headpiece

Ahsokas headpiece is a significant part of her appearance, and it is made up of two parts: the montrals and the lekku. The montrals are the horn-like protrusions on top of her head, while the lekku are the fleshy appendages that protrude from the back of her head. The lekku are a defining feature of the Togruta species, to which Ahsoka belongs. They are long, fleshy appendages that protrude from the head of all Twi'leks, Togruta, and male Zabraks. Ahsoka's lekku are shorter in live-action than in animation, which has led to some fan speculation and discussion. The triangular pieces on Ahsoka's headpiece are akul teeth, gained as a trophy for single-handedly defeating one of the predatory animals on the Togruta homeworld. Jedi Master Shaak Ti also sports a similar kind of headdress.
