Their other neck ornaments, eha, are made of leather decorated with metal studs. Their hair is styled in two plaits, which is customary for girls until adolescence. The Himba are Herero-speaking Bantu nomads who live in the harsh, dry but starkly beautiful landscape of remote northwest Namibia. © John Warburton-Lee / Photononstop Photographe : John Warburton-Lee
