The Eye of the Dhow is one of the symbols of identity in the Lamu archipelago. Historically, in the Swahili culture of Lamu, the symbol was only engraved on marine vessels, including boats, dhows and canoes. The moon and star symbolise tools used for navigation by sailors to be able to sea their way in the ocean, hence the name the Eye of the Dhow. Today the Dhow Eye is popular symbol of Lamu's identity and heritage. It is imprinted on almost everything in houses and in public, clothes, furniture, art, bags, buildings, household goods, and much more. It is especially popular with tourists for souvenirs.
