Kenyan tradition

Masai people in Kenya are nomadic people living on the African grasslands. They are more fierce than lions. They have a unique etiquette, that is, they spit when they see their elders. Even at the wedding, the bride had to accept her father spitting on her. So the etiquette of spitting may be strange to us, but it is a polite behavior to Kenyans.

Masai people in Kenya, who have lived on grasslands for a long time, have some very humanized characteristics and behaviors. For example, they have a big earlobe and ear holes. This is one of their unique signs. Children usually get their ears pierced after birth. As you get older, there will be more accessories on your ears, and your ears will naturally become wider.

Another unique feature of Maasai people is that their average height exceeds 1.9 meters. There is also a 6.0 vision that ordinary people never have. These are the envy of ordinary people and beyond our reach. This is largely because they have been drinking milk and cow blood since childhood. In addition, for them, being able to go hunting on the grassland is an affirmation of their ability and is worthy of their pride.

The behavior of Maasai people spitting is mainly due to their living habits. Because they often run and chase their prey on the grassland, they exercise much more than ordinary people. When running, the heart rate will be faster than usual. At this time, the body will subconsciously make some reactions, that is, spit. With the evolution of time, spitting is naturally a sacred thing for them.
