A mask is an object normally worn on the face, typically for protection, disguise, performance, or entertainment. Masks have been used since antiquity for both ceremonial and practical purposes.

In parts of Australia, giant totem masks cover the body, whilst Inuit women use finger masks during storytelling and dancing.
