Read again you will see it

Don't force matters

tylann:

Now that is the difference
You use mud bricks
Here in Kenya mud is just patched up and it becomes a house

Yeah but even then, it needs to be built again years down the line, taking the material it's built with into consideration. You don't just sit & let it crumble around you. It just shows lack of pride lol.

I said read it again are you an illiterate

Tanzania.
Welcome to the only underwater hoter room in Africa

Is your govt still hiding hunger incidences

OK.

Hope I don't see those scary Massai huts again

XhosaNostra:


OK.

Maasai are pastoralists
They just build makeshift shelters
They move from place to place
So those houses of theirs are not permanent

Should we start posting hunger photo album?

Well, I just looked. The presentable ones are lodges, not where ordinary people live. The rest are ugly, no offence.

These look nice though.

I was meaning maasai people build temporary houses known as manyattas
Which they demolish while they move with they cattle looking for water and pastures
So they dont put much energy on it

Why build a magnificent hut which you will demolish next month and move on
I hope you get the point now

Kazikazi:

How am i sure those are maasai houses
And they not beautiful

That is a permanent settlement

Those are not manyattas

The Ndebele people have some of the best villages. Colourful & eye-catching.

Yeah, but those were not only Maasai huts I saw

We were talking about maasai

In connection with other tribes in Kenya they have both ugly and beautiful huts

good lord you are stubborn
Is that an Aquarius trait

Tayser or some of the guys would have to support you with pictorial evidence on this one, I'm not convinced

So the Maasai don't have permanent homestead? How long do they live in the makeshift "homes"?
Btw, I just saw something else interesting. You guys also have what is called a boma. We build bomas here too for initiates.

Some have permanent homesteads
But those are concrete houses
As many maasai people are abandoning the pastoralist lifestyle
They settle in one place when they settle they
Build concrete houses
In my community mud houses are sign of poverty and failure

Yes we have boma

I personal underwent traditional circumcision
It was fun but also a horrendous experience

Oh, I see.
Why do you guys feel that way about mud houses? Here it is seen as cultural preservation. Even people with brick homes in the villages still build a mud house or two, to remain connected to one's roots.

Well, I was truly surprised by seeing a boma & it being called a boma because that's what we call it too, spelt "Bhoma".

You stay in bomas too for that?

South African guys will come for my head for even having this discussion It's off limits for them, so let me leave it right there

In kenya boma means homestead

When i underwent circumcision
We were staying in some shelters in the wilderness

Oh, that's what it means? Because when that word was used in the pictures I saw, they showed grass/straw structures, which is why I thought the meanings are the same. Anyway, good to know.

Yeah, that's how it's done here as well. No women allowed to even visit a loved on over there.

I guess it is just people mindset and westernization
People want to build nice concrete houses
Not mud houses those are a big no
Iam in the village right now some people have both concrete houses and mud houses in the same compound they say it reminds them where they came from

Understandable.

@Bolded, of course! We can't completely wipe out our origins for the sake of "civilization". A person who doesn't know where he is from will have no sense of direction in life.

Yes boma it is more connected to a traditional homestead
Women are not allowed to visit that area
Maybe the day when you are circumcisized is when they are allowed
To make you brave when your are scared they will laugh at you
