Maasai
The Maasai are an
indigenous African ethnic group of semi-nomadic people located in
Kenya and northern
Tanzania. Due to their distinctive customs and dress and residence near the many game parks of
East Africa, they are among the most well-known African ethnic groups internationally. They speak
Maa, a
Nilo-Saharan language related to
Dinka,
Nuer,
Turkana and
Songhai. The Maasai population has been variously estimated as 377,089 from the 1989 Census or as 453,000 language speakers in Kenya in 1994 and 430,000 in Tanzania in 1993 with a total estimated as "approaching 900,000" Estimates of the respective Maasai populations in both countries are complicated by the remote locations of many villages, their semi-nomadic nature and their being the only ethnic group allowed free travel over the Kenyan-Tanzanian border.

Masai
I Masai o Maasai sono una
tribù indigena
Africana semi-
nomade, diffusa principalmente in
Kenya e nel nord della
Tanzania. Si tratta di una delle tribù più conosciute dell'Africa orientale. Nonostante la crescente occidentalizzazione delle società sia del Kenya che della Tanzania, i Masai sono riusciti a mantenersi relativamente al di fuori di queste trasformazioni e conservare gran parte delle loro abitudini tradizionali.
