South Sudan may be the youngest country in Africa, but its story is rooted in some of the oldest cultures on the continent — including the Nilotic communities often called the “tallest people in the world.” 🇸🇸🌍 A reminder that identity is layered: ancient traditions, new beginnings, and a lineage that continues to rise. Curious where your story begins? Your ancestry might connect you to the very people whose history shaped this region. 🎥: @afromachi #africanancestry #southsudan #nilotic | Af

The Toposa architecture of South Sudan is characterized by its circular huts made of mud, poles, and conical thatched roofs, well-adapted to the dry climate. These dwellings are often grouped in small family enclosures enclosed with wooden stakes to protect livestock. The high roofs promote ventilation, and the round shape helps to withstand the wind. Their design reflects a pastoral life, practical and deeply connected to the environment. #inspirationofafrica | Quim Fàbregas - Fotografía y Viaj
