Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The file represents the home and habitat of Aawambo tribe in northern parts of Namibia. The beauty is that the room is made with thatched grass, mopane tree poles and mud bricks and sand made cement. The house is designed with windows and door that face to the east direction for believes of protection from the ancestors and with purpose that people including children must wake up before sun rise. The habitat is very conducive because it naturally warms during winter season and it is cool during spring or summer season when its hot. Fire can be put inside the room to attract favour from Gods (ancestors) and elders believes that fire is a symbol of communicating with the Gods of the land and brings luck to all family members. The home and habitat has lifespan of many years. The room is beautiful in terms of design and quality. The house and habitat are in different size depending of the family.
