Omo Valley photography Tour with Wisdom Ethiopia !

The extraordinarily diverse country of Ethiopia is home to some of the last true tribal people in all of Africa and has become famous for its extraordinary tribal photography potential. In the south west of Ethiopia lies the Omo Valley, a living anthropological treasure of spectacular people including the Hamer, Suri, Dassanech, Karo, Nyangatom and Mursi tribes. In the face of their ever changing world, each of these tribes is struggling to maintain their traditions of dress, dance, decoration and way of life. A visit to Ethiopia’s Omo Valley is to visit a world that is fast disappearing. A world of beauty, diversity and strength that has vanished from great tracts of Africa.

Collectively the Omo Valley people draw inspiration from the wilderness that surrounds them and this is reflected in their varying styles of traditional dress.

Game Boundary

Yanomami tribe

https://www.survivalinternational.org/tribes/yanomami

Bacaja Tribe Village, Brazil 

Some tribes don’t have a physical wall or any form of boundary and decide for a more open space. For a game and having the player easily understand the boundaries of their environment, I think a wall of some kind, whether that be a wall of thick trees or a constructed wood wall better represents the boundary better to the player.  

This is from an African Tribe but they have a constructed wooden wall around the compound of structures to act as protection from animals and other hostile things. For a game, I think a physical wall the player can see, it would be far more obvious and understanding to have a physical boundary that stops the player from leaving the playable area. 

This tribe also has these walls inside the outer wall, offering even more protection to the more important aspects of the tribe, this could also act as a way to store animals that they use for food. 

This is one is also of a African Tribe located in Uganda but they took a different approach that I think is quite interesting looking, and if I find it interesting maybe that’ll translate for the player finding it interesting. Anyway, I can’t find any solid reason they constructed it that way but it looks as if it is more private, like small estates encloses, maybe each family has their own encloses space?

write what i like

In media, tribes have these high walls of wooden, spiked logs. I think these demonstrate to the viewer a primitive technology stage and the viewer can easily get a understanding of what “it” is.  

King Kong: Skull Island

King Kong (2005) the tribes’ wall is constructed around a stone ruin, this stone wall can be seen to have many wooden structures on it to help with support and traversal. Though I do like the idea of having an even older ruin than one that was there before the tribe was there, I prefer the look of the wooded, spiked logs looks. I think this has a more traditional feel then with the stone ruins, as the next question is, who built this stone structure?

Dear friends 

Thank you very much for contacting me choosing my tribal contact experience services yes I am available and very happy to give you my reputed services in the best of ways to suit your interests, You have a great time to explore and learn more a way of life through the remote villages of the Omo River Valley Tribes, camping with Tribes I highly suggest as well. 

This is an extraordinary opportunity to meet some of the more remote ethnic groups of the fascinatingly diverse areas surrounding the Omo River in South West Ethiopia. While the Omo Valley is an area which has been on the “tourist radar” for several years, the vast majority of visitors to the region find themselves unable to escape the “4WD circuit” which has arisen. 

This comprehensive itinerary visits some of the region’s better known tribes but also spends a day walking through the Buska Mountains following a remote village trail and camping for two nights in the wild close to the villages of Buska and Kufur. Be warned, this is not an easy journey at times and there will be some basic conditions; it will surely be a journey to challenge the senses. 

   Whilst in this fascinating region we aim to learn about the varied ethnic groups who inhabit the region - from the Mursi, renowned for their lip-plates, the Konso famous for their terraced farming to the Hamer famous for their bull jumping coming of age ceremony. This is a unique itinerary in an unforgettable part of the world.

Highlights:

Meeting (amongst many) the Dorze, Ari, Bana, Hamer, Karo Surma, Nyangatom Dasenech tribes people of the delta near Lake Turkana Mursi peoples. 

Experiencing the weekly markets at Key Afer, Dimeka and Turmi

Walking through the remote Buska Mountains

Camping wild next to tribal villages

Exploring the natural wonders of the Great African Rift Valley

OMO VALLEY TOURS AND THE SOUTH

The Omo Valley tours of Ethiopia is part of the Southern Nations and Nationalities Peoples Area (SNNPR) and is a remarkably isolated area of the country, famous for its native people or tribes. There are close to 40 tribes in the zone, many of who are staying as they have existed for millennia. It is these groups that we have come to photograph-- in their villages, the bush, roadside, and local markets. 

The Danakil desert (accessed from Mekele) is the hottest place on Earth and we intend to visit Ahmedila for its ancient trade in salt using camel caravans and the Dallol volcano which manifests itself through geothermal activity at the surface creating bizarre solfataras, small geysers and bright yellow and green sulphuric acid pools on the surface. At dawn and dusk, when it is cooler, this is a photographers paradise.

The Lower Omo Valley is a spectacularly gorgeous area with varied ecosystems consisting of grasslands, volcanic outcrops, and one of the few staying 'immaculate' riverine forests in semi-arid Africa which sustains a wide array of wild animals. he Bodi (Me' en), Daasanach, Kara (or Karo), Kwegu (or Muguji), Mursi and also Nyangatom live along the Omo and depend on it for their resources, having actually created complex socio-economic and ecological methods delicately adjusted to the severe and usually unforeseeable conditions of the area's semi-arid environment. 

The yearly flooding of the Omo River feeds the rich biodiversity of the area and also guarantees the food security of the people particularly as rainfall is reduced as well as irregular. They depend on it to practice 'flood resort farming' utilizing the abundant silt left along with the river financial institutions by the gradually receding waters. They additionally exercise rainfed, changing cultivation growing sorghum, maize, and also beans on the flood plains. Some tribes, specifically the Kwegu, quest video game, and also fish. Cattle, goats, and also sheep are vital to many tribes' livelihood producing blood, milk, meat, and hides. Cattle are very valued and utilized in repayment for the bridewealth. They are an essential protection against starvation when rains as well as plants fall short. In specific seasons families travel to temporary camps to give new grazing for herds, making it through on milk and blood from their livestock. The Bodi sing rhymes to favorite livestock.

. . The women of the Nyangatom tribe are easily recognizable by their large colorful necklaces. Although there are other tribes that wear similar ones none are as big. In the past these necklaces were made of animal bones or wood and were of a more natural brown color. These days colorful plastic is taking over as the preferred choice for most women. Scars on the face and body is also common amongst the Nyangatom women who view this practice as a sign of beauty and strength. The Nyangatom, originally from Sudan, are not known for their friendliness and are in fact feared by many other tribes. . .

Nyangatom, Omo tribe  , Ethiopia

Page 6 - The Karo Tribe<\p>

The Karo Tribe live along the Omo river in Ethiopia, with a population of around 1000-2000 meaning their the smallest tribe in Ethiopia. Their neighbours include the Hamar, Bana, Bashada, Nyangatom and Mursi Tribes. The groups have traded amongst each other for cloth, beads, food and cattle for centuries. All neighbouring tribes including the Karo have remained untainted by the rest of the world. The only signs of modern influences are the plastic containers they occasionally use and AK-47 rifles used to protect against enemies and beasts.<\p>

The Karo are artistic by nature and beauty plays a big part in their lives. They are well known for their intriguing body and face painting skills. Karo people decorate themselves with chalk, coloured minerals, iron ore, vibrant feathers, flowers and charcoal in a variety of designs from fine dots to intricate lines traced with palms or fingers, sometimes resembling the spotted plumage and guinea fowl. Painting the body and face is known to be done purley for beauty and to appear more attractive to the opposite sex. Men are also permitted to lather their hair with ochre, animal fat and clay when he becomes a brave Karo warrior.<\p>

On Top of temporary body paint, the Karo also practice permanent body art. Both men and women use hot rocks, knives or razors to inflict lacerations on their chests, stomachs or back creating intricate permanent scars. The cuts are deep and smothered with ash or charcoal to darken and raise the wound. On a woman, scars are for beauty and to be considered mature and sexually attractive. On men however, the scars represent courageous acts, with each scar symbolising a kill of an enemy or deadly animal. A man with scars on his chest is held in high esteem within his tribe.<\p>
