Scalps removed are worn as ornaments (6)
I believe the answer is:
clasps
'worn as ornaments' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'scalps removed' is the wordplay.
'removed' indicates an anagram (moved again).
'scalps' anagrammed gives 'CLASPS'.
'are' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for clasps that I've seen before include "Holds tightly" , "Necklace fasteners" , "Fasteners, as on necklaces perhaps" , "Holds the fastenings to one's bosom" , "Embraces; fastenings" .)
