The man on the keft and the woman on the right are members of the Iraqw tribe, and have a little village where they promoite their culture. The Iraqw women make very nice beaded skirts from goat skins.

These Maasai boys have gone through the circumcision ceremony, but are baniushed from their village until the final initiation ceremony takes places. That is a big celebration where everyone is invited. IT will require money from some home brewww, and the family to proovide several cows and goats to feed the guests.
