Lake Eyasi Tanzania
LAKE EYASI
The salt lake is situated between the Rift Valley’s Eyasi escarpment and the Kidero Mountains. The Hadzabe have inhabited the acacia forests and scrubland around Eyasi for over ten thousand years.
Home of the Hadzabe bushmen
The area around Lake Eyasi is home to the Hadzabe bushmen - one of the few last remaining hunter-gatherers on this continent. The Hadzabe are loyal to their indigenious way of life. The traditional Hadzabe home is a cave or hole. Hunting in groups with bows and preparated arrows, this tribe is able to survive with what the environment provides.
Meet the Hadzabe
