Hamar women dance around cattle at a 'Jumping of the Bull' ceremony as a rainbow gives colour to a threatening sky overhead. The Hamar are semi-nomadic pastoralists of Southwest Ethiopia whose women wear striking traditional dress and style their red-ochre hair mop-fashion. Skins are widely used for clothing and heavy metal necklaces, bracelets and anklets form part of their adornments. The phallic protrusion of the women's chokers denote they are their husbands' first wives. Cowries are also popular to embellish a woman's appearance yet the sea is 500 miles from Hamar country.The 'Jumping of the Bull' ceremony is a rite of passage for young men. The climax to the ceremony is when the initiate leaps onto a line of ten or more of his family's bulls and runs along their backs; he must complete the feat twice in each direction. After the ceremony, the initiate attains full manhood and is permitted to marry.B0015P 0019Nigel Pavitt52005100656070714+03006
