The title of Shey is always marked by the wearing of a special cap on the beneficiary. Some of the titles are inherited while others are conferred the title for doing extraordinary things in the village. The Sheys and Tantohs are the leaders of Nwarong and until a young man is initiated, he can never enter the Nwarong house.
