Selected models from the East African tribe

Abstract

The social formation of the African continent is tribal, with each group of people gathered in a specific location on the continent identifying itself as a tribe. Each tribe has its own characteristics, customs, and traditions. We have chosen models from these tribes because Africa is home to thousands of tribes, almost all of which share similarities in some aspects and differ in others. Some tribes depend on agriculture and livestock herding, moving seasonally to follow water sources. They often wear clothing made from tree bark. Others are engaged in hunting, residing in forests, and their clothing is mostly made from animal hides. A few tribes are involved in trade, with some commercial exchanges, especially with Arabs. Their customs and traditions may seem somewhat peculiar, particularly in marriage, divorce, burial practices, and social life. However, these practices are inherited from their ancestors, and it is essential to respect them, as these are societies that have lived for thousands of years in this manner.
