Masai Women (52 min) 5296

• The Masai are cattle herders in the Rift Valley
  of East Africa. Cattle are the focus of wealth
  for tribe. The Masai are patrilineal, patriarchal
  and patrilocal.
• The video follows the lives of women in this male
  dominated society. The roles of girls as
  companions of the warriors, a newly married woman
  moving to her husband's compound, and elder women
  at the coming of age ceremony for their sons are
  featured.
• Women do not own cattle, but control cattle for
  their sons who are not yet adults. Women's
  mythology supports the position of women. The
  anthropologist for the video is Melissa
  Llewellyn-Davies.
