The first postcard received from Kenya, sent by Aliya, a friend I know from Colnect. There will be more fom her. This one shows a Samburu tribe, a Nilotic ethnic group in north-central Kenya that are related to but distinct from the Maasai.
The info on the back of the postcard : Samburu tribe spreads over an area of about 29,000 sq. km. A nomadic Maa-speaking tribe mainly living in Maralal and the border zones of Marsabit District. Unlike the war-like Maasai, whose culture heritage and language they share, the Samburu do not adopt an aggressive lifestyle.
