The Mangbetu Tribe of Congo 🇨🇩 — The People of the Elongated Heads

The Mangbetu people of the Democratic Republic of Congo are world-famous for their distinct elongated head shapes, a tradition known as Lipombo.

In the past, Mangbetu parents would gently wrap their babies’ heads with cloth to create a long, oval shape — a sign of intelligence, beauty, and nobility. This ancient practice symbolized cultural pride and set them apart from neighboring tribes.

Beyond their unique appearance, the Mangbetu are also admired for their advanced art, music, and architecture, which flourished long before colonial times.

Though Lipombo is rarely practiced today, the Mangbetu remain a proud reminder of Africa’s deep creativity and heritage.

Meet the Mopane worm, a popular delicacy across Southern Africa! 🇿🇦🇧🇼🇿🇼

Don’t be fooled by the look — this crunchy, protein-packed caterpillar is packed with nutrients and often roasted, fried, or cooked in a spicy tomato sauce. In fact, it contains three times more protein than beef and has become a sustainable food source for many communities.

Would you try it… or pass? 😅

Did you know

This happened on July 17,1967
Florida lineman Randall Champion was hit with 4,000 volts of electricity after touching a high-voltage line. His heart stopped instantly. His coworker and friend J.D. Thompson rushed to help, climbing up and giving him mouth-to-mouth until paramedics arrived. Champion survived and even went back to work the next week.

By chance, Rocco Morabito, a photographer for the Jacksonville Journal, was below and captured the dramatic moment. His photo, later called "The Kiss of Life," became one of the most powerful images ever taken.

The Mystery of King Tut’s African Roots

The story of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, better known as King Tut, continues to fascinate the world more than 3,000 years after his reign. Discovered in 1922 inside a perfectly preserved tomb filled with gold and treasures, King Tut remains one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time.

But beyond the glittering artifacts lies a deeper story — one that connects ancient Egypt to the rest of Africa.
Many historians and researchers believe that ancient Egypt was not an isolated civilization, but part of a vast network of African cultures, stretching from Nubia (modern-day Sudan) to the Great Lakes region. These civilizations shared trade, language elements, architecture, and spiritual traditions.

Recent studies in genetics, art, and cultural anthropology have fueled discussions that King Tut’s royal lineage may have had deep African roots — linking him to the kingdoms that flourished along the Nile Valley long before colonial borders existed.

Whether through art, symbolism, or ancient writings, Egypt’s history continues to remind the world that Africa was home to some of the most advanced and sophisticated civilizations long before the modern era.
