Surma (or Suri) women, an ethnic group from southwestern Ethiopia, are known for wearing lip plates as part of a rite of passage and cultural symbol. Upon reaching adolescence, some women pierce their lower lips and gradually stretch them to accommodate clay or wooden discs. This adornment is seen as a sign of beauty, social status, and maturity within their community.
