Masai Mens

On an African Safari Kenya you meet the Maasai, and they are to their culture, if you choose as your destination, the Masai Mara Game Reserve in South-West Kenya and Amboseli National Park on the southern outskirts of Kenya along the Tanzanian border.

The Maasai are large, thin. They proudly claim the heritage of ancient warriors. The Maasai migrated to southern Kenya from the Nile Valley in northern Africa. Their traditional nomadic way of life, tending cattle, has been threatened in recent times as the relentless pulse of the modern civilization continues to penetrate Kenya.On your South African Safari in Kenya can meet local Maasai and learn about their habits.

Maasai men pass through various initiation into manhood, and then again in the state as a wise elder in the community. There are no heads of the Maasai tribes, but religious leaders over within their tribe. Maasai men stretch their earlobes to excessive size and tattoo their cheeks. They like to wear bright colors, especially red. A Maasai warrior is up against his enemies the lion, with his flowing red cloak behind him and his spear firmly in the ground to show its strength and lack of fear.

In their traditional nomadic life herding cattle, the Maasai use any part of the cow. They ate meat and drank the blood, is composed solely of the animal. They used to barter for cattle and goats. Today they have more regular life and grow crops and buy fruit at the local market. They eat corn and rice, potatoes and cabbage. The new way of life hard on the Maasai spirit. Once the farm of the land can not be used for grazing. This goes against the grain of this proud people who for centuries as nomads.

On your African Safari Kenya shows Maasai huts made of mud and sticks. They traditionally build their houses and live in clusters, while the cattle graze the ground, then they give up these temporary shelters when it is time to move on and find new pasture.
