Uses of "Kono"
This devices is used to prevent stubborn cats from eating your meat.
Again,it is used to prevent bacterias from reacting on meat by hanging it in the kitchen where firewood was used as a source of fire.
In the olden days the only way they Cook was to use firewood as a source of fire.

In recent times, these cannot be found in my communities again because of the advancement of technology. Now, Fridges are used to keep food from spoilage. Again, Electric and gas stoves are used to for cooking.
Nevertheless, these interesting devices can be found in the villages and it will blow your mind though not efficient as the new technology.
