WHO ARE THE HERERO TRIBE?

The Herero tribe, originating from Namibia, is renowned for their vibrant attire and unique cultural traditions. The Herero women, dressed in elaborate Victorian-inspired dresses adorned with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, create a visually stunning spectacle.

Herero men exhibit their strength and grace through captivating
traditional dances. Their rhythmic movements and symbolic gestures echo the tribe's rich history and values, expressing a deep connection to their ancestral roots.

Herero homesteads are a testament to the tribe's close-knit
community and resilience. The distinct architecture, characterized by circular huts adorned with thatched roofs, showcases their resourcefulness and harmonious coexistence with the environment.

Cattle herding holds great importance within the Herero culture.
These majestic animals are not only a vital source of sustenance and livelihood but also serve as a symbol of wealth and social status.

The Herero people rebelled against their German colonizers. In response, the Germans tried to exterminate them. The process included imprisoning them and members of the Hana tribe on Shark Island, what is considered to be the world's first concentration camp. Conditions and German treatment were brutal. Thousands died. Many Herero committed suicide rather than letting themselves be sent there. Glad to see that Herero culture survived in spite of the Germans.
