 | In the hot, dry area around Lake Eyasi, live the Hadzabe (also known as Tindinga) people who have been in-residence for around 10,000 years. Anthropologically, albeit distantly, related to the San Bushmen of the Kalahari, the Hadzabe possess a thrilling ‘click’ language and the precise hunting skills of the bow and arrow along with their food gathering traditions. |
