Niger:Tuareg Nomads Riding Donkeys From The Well

Another picture from my 1969 Sahel journey. The one I posted yesterday was of Wodaabe nomads. This one is of Tuareg nomads riding away from a well. Water-filled goat skin bags hang from the bellies of their donkeys.

Une autre photo de mon séjour de 1969 au Sahel. La photo d’hier était de nomades Wodaabe (Bororo). Celle-ci montre des femmes Touarègues s’éloignant d’un puits. Des outres de peau de chèvres remplies d’eau pendent sous le ventre de leurs ânes.
