A member of the tribe gathering dung from the ground. LONDONDERRY, NORTHERN IRELAND, UK: FASCINATING photographs show an African tribe where members use URINE to wash their faces and bleach their hair. Compelling images reveal the daily rituals of the cattle-worshipping Mundari tribe, including one that shows a young boy covered in ashes from fire with another smearing the dung of the Ankole Watusi cattle on the ground. Other photographs depict the large size of the cattle?s horns which can grow up to 72 inches in length, whilst another shows a boy washing himself with the animal?s urine. The incredible shots were taken in one of the cattle camps in South Sudan by travel photographer, Trevor Cole from Londonderry, Northern Ireland, UK. mediadrumimages / Trevor Cole
