Hadzabe
Hadzabe people known as Hadza are found near lake Eyasi located in the Northern Tanzania. It almost takes a drive of one hour away from Karatu a small town that is considered to be the gateway to Ngorongoro crater. Surprisingly enough the Hadza have no written history, instead relaying on their own words to pass stories and memories on from one generation to another.
Hadzabe live a nomadic life in such a way that they move location frequently whenever they in need to search for food and water. Hadzabe survive on meat since then they spend their days hunting and foraging for food. Men typically hunt at dawn and dusk time when wild animals approach nearby swamps, as well as gathering honey. NB: They use bows and arrows that have been dippid/choped into poison made from the Aclcium shrub.
Women and children gather berries, baobab, fruit and edible tubers have the same status, since then they are few in number approximately to be less than 1,000 people in the tribe. The Hadza's language is unlike other tribes.
