And they don't want to get out of that primitive life, so naturally they won't wear some so-called clothes. Moreover, the local resources are scarce, and nothing can make them wear clothes. Moreover, as we all know, the climate in Africa is very hot, and it is good for the body to get rid of heat without clothes. In fact, it is also to adapt to the environment in Africa.
The origin of the red mud tribe The reason why they are called the red mud tribe is very simple, because they will be covered with red mud. The function of this orange puree is to prevent them from being bitten by mosquitoes and exposed to the sun when they live in the wild. This practice is very similar to that of many animals to prevent mosquito bites. For example, elephants will roll mud in the mire to prevent mosquito bites, and mud can also help the body to dissipate heat.
Moreover, they don't need to take a bath after they are covered with red mud, because the red mud on their bodies will be mixed with mud. As long as you rub a layer of red mud on your body and then apply a layer of red mud, it is equivalent to taking a bath. They also do this because local resources are very scarce. There are not many water sources in many parts of Africa, especially in the dry season. So in order to save water, they try not to take a bath.
Although modern society is developing very rapidly and many people visit these tribes, it seems that people from these primitive tribes are reluctant to join the big family of modern society. They still like to keep their original life and continue that primitive life, which is also an important reason why they keep their original customs, that is, they don't really want to join the modern society, or they may not be able to keep up with the pace of modern society.
