Ethiopia’s Omo Valley | Africa’s Last Frontier, National Geographic Magazine: Nyangatom and Karo Peace Ceremony in Lokulan | Omo Valley, Ethiopia

This is a peace ceremony in a Nyangatom village called Lokulan, which is next door to Lumale camp.  Nyangatom are sedentary agriculturists who practice flood recession agriculture on the banks of the Omo.  They were fighting the Karo across the river up until last year until a peace agreement was reached. The Nyangatom are having a village meeting and have invited the Karo to celebrate. This is also the time of their community meeting and festival.
