MAASAI TRADITIONAL MEDICINE
The Maasai are pastoralists, warriors, and keepers of vulnerable traditional East African medicinal knowledge
Everyday, in rural areas around the world, people use herbs to help heal the sick, keep the healthy strong, and feed their family and friends. But, they may have never written down this traditional knowledge. Herbal Anthropology Project was started to protect their knowledge, keeping it safe for generations to come.
