The Banna Tribe's Incredible Stilt Walking Tradition 🌍
In Ethiopia's Omo Valley, young Banna men use tall wooden stilts, known as Tewa, for more than show. The height helps herders spot livestock across the grasslands and stay safe from lions, leopards, and snakes hiding in the brush.
Passed down through generations, it's a skill built on strength, balance, and courage — and a living part of Banna culture.
