Bonnet [1]
bon´et : In the King James Version the designation of the special headdress of the rank and file of the priesthood, the Revised Version (British and American) "head-tire" ( Exodus 28:40 ). It consisted of a long swath of fine white linen wound around the head in oriental fashion. The Hebrew word found in Exodus 29:9 the Revised Version (British and American), "to bind head-tires," literally "to wind head-tires," means, in the light of usage, "to form an egg-shaped turban." Compare Josephus, Ant , III, vii, 3; and see Rich, Dict. Roman and Greek Ant , under the word pileus , for illustration of the egg-shaped cap of Ulysses, with which Jerome compared the priestly turban. See Dress; Mitre , etc.
