2MAASAI PEOPLE

This East African tribe is one of the few that still have their traditions and lifestyle preserved today. A dominant demographic in pre-colonial times, the Maasai suffered a blow to their prevalence during European colonisation.

Known for their distinctive red tribal dress and unique musical tradition where there are no instruments, only singing and dancing, the Maasai culture is beautiful yet wistful. Their presence serves as a fragment of our anthropological past, still preserved yet under constant threat from modernisation.
