| Lake Eyasi - Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania |
This wild, still nearly unexplored landscape, is particularly impressive. Lake Eyasi is a mildly alkaline lake stretching for about 50 km (31 miles) to the southwest. To the northeast, as far as your eyes can see, the horizon is dominated by the impressive Crater Highlands, to the north the plains of the Serengeti.
This area is inhabited by small groups of Bushmen - the Hadzabe and Watindiga. Who live in groups hunting with bow and arrows and gathering roots, tubers and wild fruits much as humankind lived in the Stone Age (over 10,000 years ago). Over 100 years ago, when the stronger Maasai tribes moved into the Ngorongoro and Serengeti, the tribes made the area around Lake Eyasi their home. Another interesting tribe in the area is the Datoga. These are the last remaining tribes of Bushmen in East Africa.
