We have changed our company name and logo from (Omo Valley Origin Tours) to (Omo Region Tours) by using ring as widely known in the Omo region. Rings carry deep cultural meanings across the globe, serving as potent symbols of love, commitment, heritage, and identity.

The new logo the first “O” letter in ring helical shape represents the river of “Omo” that lies along in the Omo region; and the color of the letters in light brown represents the skin color of the Omo people As well as the color of the Omo river; the Omo river is almost close to dark red brown color.

As widely known the Omo region is a cultural melting pot with at least 16 distinct tribes; and the people are symbol of Coexist harmoniously, Solidarity and peace, So we intended the ring sin helical shape and the colour we used for the logo design it explains very well about the Omo region.

Heavy necklaces and long skirts from goat skins, which are richly decorated, are characteristic for the women. Necklaces were traditionally made from dry seeds, but these days they have been largely replaced with colourful glass beads coming from Kenya. The women also decorate themselves with ornamental scarification on their faces, chests, and bellies.

Their staple food is a porridge made from corn or sorghum. Additionally, they relish crocodile meat and eggs, as well as fish.

SEVERAL FEASTS ARE TAKING PLACE DOWN IN THE OMO VALLEY, CEREMONIES THAT WILL LET YOU WITNESS THE VERY FAR TRADITIONS THROUGH THE PASSAGE OF TIME, COME AND FILL YOUR GAPS ABOUT HUMAN KINDS DIFFERENT LIFE STYLE ON EARTH, CHEERS CHEERS.

MURSI AND SURI’S DUELLING(ART Stick fighting)

Ceremonial dueling (thagine) is a form of ritualized male violence, or 'martial art', in which men from different locally based divisions of the population join in brief but furious single combat, using wooden poles and wearing stylized protective clothing. It is a key marker of Mursi identity and a highly valued and popular activity of young men who, amongst other things, are keen to prove themselves to unmarried girls.

The duelling weapon is a wooden pole (donga, pl. dongen), around two meters long which is cut from one of two species of tree of the genus Grewia (kalochi). In the attacking position the donga is gripped at its base with both hands, the left above the right, the aim being to land a blow with the shaft (never with the point) on any part of the opponents body, including the head, with sufficient force to knock him over.
Blows are parried by continuing to grip the base of the donga with the right hand, while sliding the left hand up the shaft to a point above that at which the blow is received. Each contestant wears a duelling 'kit' (tumoga) which is both protective and decorative. It includes a basket-work hand guard for the right hand, shin guards made from animal skin, rings of plaited sisal cord to protect the elbows and knees, a leopard skin over the front of the torso, a hide skirt, cut into strips, and a cattle bell tied round the waist. The head is protected by wrapping round it long swathes of cotton cloth. Bouts are controlled by one or more referees (kwethana, sing. kwethani).

For a bout to end in the victory of one of the contestants his opponent must either fall to the ground or retire hurt (commonly because of broken or bruised fingers). In the first case, though not in the second, the victor is carried round the field on the shoulders of his local age mates and then surrounded by unmarried girls of his mother's clan, his girl mothers(dole juge).

The Hamer pay close attention and spend a lot of time taking Care of their Physical appearance, in particular hairstyles,both for men and women, are very elaborate and take a long time to be done. Married women curl their hair in thin braids using butter and red ocher, the result is a very recognizable red bob and a sign of beauty and health; instead men make a sort of hood, using plaster and ocher, on which they insert feathers or other objects, this particular hairstyle lasts several months and symbolizes that the man killed an enemy or a dangerous animal. *************************************************************#hamertribe #africanhairstyle #omovalley #omovalleytribes #omoriver #africanculture #africantradition #traditionalafricanhairstyle #ethiopia
