A herding, Nilo-Cushitic culture, the nomadic Barabaig
migrated from the Horn of Africa to the Great Rift Valley about 3,000 years ago, settling in what is now Tanzania. They
have long been a feared rival to the well-known Maasai tribe. While
wealthy in cattle and spirit, the Barabaig have struggled against
increasing hardship and opposition to their traditional culture.
Now they seek ways to both advance themselves and to save that culture. |
