Why are African Tribal People Soo Attractive??? (Top 6 African Male looksmaxing Secrets!!!)


Africa is a continent full of beautiful faces:)


Wodaabe (male peacocking) Men Teeth Whitening 




White Teeth 

. They are a Nomadic pastoralist sub ethnic group of the Fulani

. Beauty is a very important part of their culture as it is the man’s responsibility to attract the women’s attention 

. Once a year the nomads come together for a festival called “Gerewol” where men compete to be selected by marriageable women for marriage as the most beautiful 

. The beauty standards include being tall, White Eyes & Teeth, men will often roll their eyes and show their teeth to emphasize these characteristics


Tecnuiques these people use to show off the charateristics and whiten their teeth are using 


  • Men use lipstick to dye their lips blacks to emphasize the white color of their teeth
  • Beside this, other things traditionally used by people across the African continent for whiter teeth include things like charcoal, African chewing sticks, and even cow dung in some cases




Chadian Women Chèbe powder




Long Hair 

  • Credited tp their famously ling hair 
  • Made from Croton gratissimus a plant that grows natively in many countries in sub Saharan Africa 
  • Musically mixed with animal fats and other oils & is applied to the hair several times per month 
  • When being applied its generally also serves as a women’s gathering & bonding event 


Women in Chad from the Basara Arab ethnic group use Chebe powder 

  • Manila used as a protective styling agent
  • Adds a coat of protection to the hair making it less vulnerable to things like damage and breakage  


Why South Sudanese (nilotes) are too tall (cattle based diet) 








Cattle based Diet 


South Sudanese Nilotes are famously know for the staggering height, producing even the NBA’s tallest basketball player Manut Bol. 


Many theories have been made for their extremely lengthy stature. 


Avg hieght: Mostly exaggerated, however some studies found the average highest to be around 5’11, just a few centimeters under the Dutch of the Netherlands


Explanations: 


  • Historically were pastoralist, consuming dairy products like milk, cheese, and eating meats and grains which are optimal fro bone health 
  • Environmental factors such as abundant sunlight and resulting in them reviving a good amount of Vitamin D 


This thing parent suorising, as South Sudanese models in recent years have made a string presence in the modeling agencies for their polarizing, and over all attractive looks.

A Concise History Of the Dinka

Image
Written by Bior Malual Background The Dinka ( Jiɛ̈ɛ̈ŋ): The Dinka today are a notable ethnic groups living mainly in the region of East Africa in the country of South Sudan. Their population is close to around 4.5 million people and are known mainly for their pastoral actives, along side with being one of if not the tallest ethic group in the world. This ethic group produced the NBA’s tallest player Manute Bol, standing at a staggering 7’7 feet tall. Besides basketball, the Dinka and as well as other South Sudanese ethnicities are also known for dominating the modeling industries with famous models such as Anok Yai, and Adut Akech. These remarkable accomplishments go say that the people of this ethnic group are a great people, however much is not very known about their origins. Which is what I will be discussing throughout this reading.  Most of what is known about Dinka history has to do with the Sudanese civil wars, fought from 1955-1972, and then again from 1983-2005.

The Savanah Pastoral Neolithic Culture

              The Savannah Pastoral Neolithic culture was a prehistoric society that thrived in the region of Kenya during the mid-Holocene period, around 3000-1200 BCE. This culture was characterized by its reliance on animal husbandry, particularly the herding of cattle, sheep, and goats. The people of the Savannah Pastoral Neolithic were semi-nomadic, moving their herds across the vast savannah grasslands in search of resources and suitable grazing grounds. They lived in small settlements and practiced a mixed economy, engaging in hunting, gathering, and limited agriculture alongside their pastoral activities. Archaeological evidence suggests that they had rich social and cultural systems, as seen in the presence of elaborate burial sites, pottery, stone tools, and personal ornaments. The Savannah Pastoral Neolithic culture represents an important phase in the development of human societies in the region, as it laid the foundation for subsequent societies that emerged in East Africa

The Neolithic Transition of North Africa

Image
  Intro       In the vast expanse of North Africa, a profound shift in human civilization was unfolding, ushering in an era that would forever alter the course of history—the Neolithic Revolution. Around 13,000 BCE, In North  Western Africa forger populations inhabited the  vast majority of the regions, primarily indulging in hunting and gathering activities. These populations are typically associated with what is know as the  Iberomaurusian culture. However, later we see during the early Neolithic period the transition from hunter gathering and forger lifestyles to more agricultural ones. Which recent studies show was ignited by the migration of Early European farmer populations from the Iberian peninsula. With the adoption of cultural practices & technologies previously developed in Mediterranean Europe and the Middle East during the Neolithic revolution, North Western Africa experienced a Neolithic transition. This pivotal moment, known as the Neolithic Revolution, birthed the f
