A TRIBUTE TO:
The African tribe of Barabaig's
in Tanzania
This site is dedicated to a very
fine tribe of people who live in the central part of Tanzania. This tribe
is one of the few remaining "cattle herders"in this part of Africa. They
exist and survive much as they have for hundreds of years. The author of
this page lived near these people for several years in the 1980's.

The physical appearance
of the Barabaig with their fine facial features and height, (males around
6 feet, and the women somewhat shorter), resemble the African somatic type
known as Nilotic. These striking features can be seen in the photos of
friends of mine in the area around Mount Hanang which is about 60 miles
west of Babati, Tanzania.

these people click on the following link:
