Overview
The Omo Valley in southwest Ethiopia is one of the last places on Earth where multiple tribal groups maintain ancient body decoration and cultural practices largely unchanged by modernity. The Mursi women with their lip plates, the Hamer bull jumping initiation ceremony, and the Karo cliff-side villages overlooking the Omo River represent a living anthropological treasure. The weekly markets at Turmi and Dimeka bring different tribes together in spectacular cultural exchange.
