Mundari man polishing the horns of one of his Watusi cows using a mixture of cow urine and ash as a ritualistic and protective practice in a temporary cattle camp in Terekeka, South Sudan.

Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Ein Mundari-Mann poliert die Hörner einer seiner Watusi-Kühe mit einer Mischung aus Kuhurin und Asche – ein ritueller und schützender Brauch in einem provisorischen Viehlager in Terekeka, Südsudan. Das Foto entstand kurz nach Sonnenuntergang. Der Rauch im Hintergrund stammt von Kuhdungfeuern. Die Mundari sind eine kleine ethnische Gruppe im Südsudan und sprechen Bari, eine ostnilotische Sprache. Sie leben in einer symbiotischen Beziehung zu ihren Ankole-Watusi-Rindern und nutzen die Tiere nicht zur Fleischgewinnung, sondern als wichtige Quelle für Wohlstand, Nahrung und für spirituelle Zwecke. Die Kühe sind zentral für das Leben der Mundari: Sie liefern Milch zum Überleben, Dung als Brennstoff (dessen Rauch Mücken und andere Insekten fernhält) und Asche (die als Repellent und für kosmetische Zwecke verwendet wird) und dienen als eine Art Währung für die Mitgift. Die Hirten widmen ihr Leben dem Schutz der wertvollen Ankole-Watusi-Kühe, schlafen mit ihnen und betrachten sie als lebende Ressource und Quelle von tiefer kultureller Bedeutung.
English: Mundari man polishing the horns of one of his Watusi cows using a mixture of cow urine and ash as a ritualistic and protective practice in a temporary cattle camp in Terekeka, South Sudan. The picture was taken just after sunset and the smoke in the background is the result of cow dung bonfires. The Mundari are a small ethnic group of South Sudan that belong to the Karo. They have a symbiotic relationship with their Ankole-Watusi cattle, using the animals as a vital source of wealth, food, and spiritual connection, rather than for meat. The cows are central to Mundari life, providing milk for sustenance, dung for fuel (when burned to produce smoke that keeps mosquitoes and other insects away) and ash (used as a repellent and for cosmetic purposes), and acting as a form of currency for dowries. Herders dedicate their lives to protecting the prized Ankole-Watusi cows, sleeping alongside, viewing them as a living bank and a source of profound cultural significance.
Igbo: Mundari nwoke na-egbucha mpi nke otu n'ime ha Watusi cows n'ogige ehi dị na Terekeka, South Sudan.
Español: Hombre mundari puliendo los cuernos de una de sus vacas watusi con una mezcla de orina de vaca y cenizas en una práctica ritual y de protección en un campo de ganado temporal en Terekeka, Sudán del Sur. La imagen se tomó nada más salir el sol y el humo en el fondo es el resultado de hogueras de fuego quemando boñigas. Los mundari son un pequeño grupo étnico de Sudán del Sur que pertenece a los karo. Tienen una relación simbiótica con su ganado ankole watusi, utilizando a los animales como fuente de riqueza, alimentación (leche) y conexión espiritual, en lugar de por su carne. Las vacas son primordiales en la vida de los mundari proveyendo leche para su sustento, boñigas como combustible (cuando se quema para alejar a los mosquitos y otros insectos) y cenizas (usadas como repelentes y con fines cosméticos), y sirviendo también como moneda de cambio. Los vaqueros dedican su vida a proteger a sus valiosas vacas, pernoctando con ellas y contemplándolas como una fuente viva de riqueza y de profundo significado cultural.
Русский: Мужчина из племени Мандари полирует рога одной из своих коров породы ватусси, используя смесь коровьей мочи и золы — это ритуальная и защитная практика, выполняемая в скотоводческом лагере близ Терекеке в Южном Судане. Фотография сделана сразу после захода солнца; дым на заднем плане поднимается от костров из коровьего навоза.

Мандари — небольшой народ Южного Судана, принадлежащий к этнической группе Каро. Их жизнь тесно связана с коровами ватусси, которые являются источником благосостояния, пищи и духовной силы, но не разводятся ради мяса. Коровы занимают центральное место в культуре Мандари: они дают молоко; их навоз служит топливом для костров — при сжигании он производит дым, отпугивающий комаров и других насекомых, и золу, используемую как репеллент и для косметических целей; кроме того, коровы выступают частью приданого.

Пастухи посвящают жизнь защите своих ценных коров ватусси, спят рядом с ними, считая их живым богатством и важным элементом культурной традиции своего народа.
Українська: Мандарієць полірує роги однієї зі своїх корів ватуссі у загоні (Терекека, Південний судан).
Français : Un homme Mundari en train de polir les cornes d'une de ses vaches Watusi à l'aide d'un mélange d'urine de vache et de cendres, dans le cadre d'une pratique rituelle et protectrice, dans un campement temporaire pour bétail à Terekeka, au Soudan du Sud. La photo a été prise juste après le coucher du soleil et la fumée en arrière-plan provient des feux de bûches alimentés par des bouses de vache. Les Mundari sont un petit groupe ethnique du Soudan du Sud appartenant aux Karo. Ils entretiennent une relation symbiotique avec leur bétail Ankole-Watusi, utilisant les animaux comme une source vitale de richesse, de nourriture et de connexion spirituelle, plutôt que pour leur viande. Les vaches occupent une place centrale dans la vie des Mundari : elles fournissent du lait pour leur subsistance, du fumier pour le combustible (lorsqu'il est brûlé, il produit de la fumée qui éloigne les moustiques et autres insectes) et des cendres (utilisées comme répulsif et à des fins cosmétiques), et servent de monnaie d'échange pour les dots. Les éleveurs consacrent leur vie à la protection des précieuses vaches Ankole-Watusi, dormant à leurs côtés, les considérant comme une banque vivante et une source d'une profonde signification culturelle.
