The Koma; the lost tribe
The Koma inhabit the Alantika Mountains, in Nigeria and Cameroon. They have been refugees in the mountains for centuries to escape Islamization and to preserve their traditions and religion. For this reason they have always been treated as an inferior ethnic group by the multiple ethnic groups that inhabit the plain.

The Larim tribe of South Sudan, artisans of the hills
The Larim, known to their Toposa neighbors as Boyas, split from the great Murle nation after an argument over dinner. One Murle clan had invited another clan, but the other clan was not satisfied by how little gazelle meat was in the soup. They were offended and decided to migrate west. They settled in a mountainous area with plenty of water and fertile land. This is how the Larim tribe emerged, one of the most beautiful and unknown in South Sudan.

The Menit tribe, the Nuba of Ethiopia
The Menit tribe lives between the fertile mountains of Shasha and the Omo River Valley. Its economy is based on agriculture. Within this village, the 'kola' group lives more isolated and is dedicated to raising cattle. The 'kola' spend part of their free time decorating their bodies. The beauty of these paintings and the physiognomy remind us of the images of the Nuba of Sudan photographed in 1974 by Leni Riesfenstahl.
