MURSI TRIBE

 AFRICA HISTORY 🌍 Ethiopia 🇪🇹

The Mursi are a Surmic ethnic group in Ethiopia. They principally reside in the Debub Omo Zone of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People's

The religion of the Mursi people is classified as Animism, although some Mursi have adopted Christianity. There is a Serving in Mission Station in the northeastern corner of Mursiland, which provides education, basic medical care and instruction in Christianity

The Mursi Tribe, of which there are less than 10,000, are well known for the large plates the women wear in their lower lip. The custom of wearing a lip plate is linked to the female's fertility and eligibility for marriage

Ethiopian state assimilated Mursi land in the 19th century during the reign of Emperor Menelik II. It is believed that Mursi history dates somewhere 150 to 200 years ago and is the product of various nomadic groups.

The Mursi Tribe (or Mun as they refer to themselves) are a unique group of people with a population most recently recorded as being 7,500.26 Apr 2021

During the dry season they live mainly along the banks of the Omo. When the rains come they return to the grasslands, east of the river, to live close to their cattle and enjoy the fresh milk. Life for the Mursi is often arduous and sometimes dangerous.
