Group of Mucubal people (also called Mucubai, Mucabale, Mugubale) dancing around a campfire at night. Southern Angola.

Their lifestyle is based on cattle and agriculture, and some very specific customs and traditions. Girls have their upper teeth sharpened and lower ones removed. Cattle is only killed on special occasions, as Mucubal usually don’t eat meat but instead eat corn (when they manage to grow it), eggs, milk, and chicken. They don’t eat any fish because according to the legend, one of their chieftains was brought to the sea by the Portuguese and never came back.
