A group of Dassanech women and children at a village situated close to the Omo River. All the villagers' food reserves are stored in semicircular granaries, which are kept well off the ground in case of flooding.The Dassanech speak a language of Eastern Cushitic origin. They live in the Omo Delta and they practice animal husbandry and fishing as well as agriculture.The Omo River rises in the Ethiopian Highlands and flows for over 600 miles before discharging its waters into the northern end of Lake Turkana. Once a year following rains in the highlands, the river rises and bursts its banks, flooding the low-lying plains. After the water has subsided, the Dassanech plant crops in the fertile soil.B0013P 0022Nigel Pavitt52005100156120423+03006
