| Page Views: 3,734 Last Visit to Turmi: March, 2004 | Turmi, village of the Hamer people by sachara - last update: Aug 21, 2004 |
We stayed for three days in Turmi, the maintown of the Hamer. It was an easygoing town. We visited the market and the primary school. And were invited for dinner at the compound of a local Hamer family. |
|  | The Hamer people are known for their remarkable hairstyles. The women rub a mixture of ochre, water and butter in their hair, creating coppery-coloured tresses, known as goscha. The women wear torques and bead necklaces around their neck and goatskin skirts, decorated with kaurishells. |
At the monday market in Turmi the Hamer people from the small villages around come to the marketsquare to sell their vegetables, sorghum, millet, spices, butter and milk. In Dimeka, a village north of Turmi is a market at tuesday and saturday | | |
