Maasai - Tanzania
Maasai | Rift Escarpment, Tarangire | Tanzania, 2010
Some say that to be a Maasai is to be born into one of the world’s last great warrior cultures. From boyhood to adulthood, young Maasai begin to learn the responsibilities of being a man and a warrior (moran). Through rituals and ceremonies, boys are guided and mentored by their fathers and other elders.
