520 After visiting Lake Elmentieta in the Great Rift Valley,
home of the flamingo, the cameraman travels to Lake Albert
and the Belgian Congo. Hippopotami and crocodiles live in
the lake, and nerby lives the Bamburi tribe. The women of
this tribe had had their faces disfigured by inserting
large wooden disks into their upper lips, giving them a
duckbill appearance. This practice was originated to
protect the women from slave traders, and today is worn by
some as a mark of tribal distinction. Deep in the Ituri
Forest of the Belgian Congo lives the Ifi tribe of African
Pygmies. These tiny people (average height for men, 55";
women, 52") display their ability as forest hunters and
their enjoyment of dancing to native chants and rhythms.
Still further west in the heart of the Congo is found the
long-headed Mangbettu. Children's heads are bound from
infancy to give them an elongated shape that is considered
a mark of beauty and distinction by these people. Women
decorate their unusual hair arrangements with monkey
bones. Dancing, with these people, is a necessary
preliminary to all tribal activities of importance. Just
north of the equator, and to the east on the fringes of
the Kaisut Desert are found the nomadic and stately
Rendelli. These tenders of flocks are
520 closely related to the Samburu, and are of Somali
