Samburu dance - Kenya |

The samburu dance is magnificent: the women stand like this and make their necklaces jump, in a very proud attitude.
A great moment, i recommend!
Nangida village, Kenya
The Samburu tribe is closely related to the Maasai. They are seminomadic and belong to the Maa (Nilotic) speaking group of people. Like the Maasai, they live in the central Rift Valley area of Kenya, where the climate is semi-arid. They do very little farming.Their livelihood depends upon the cattle, sheep and goats they raise. So, like their neighbours, they have to search for water and grazing land which leads them out from their homes during dry seasons. Most Samburu still wear traditional dress. Samburu are very spiritual people, believing and praying daily to the God they call Ngai.
