Description
The spear has long been the weapon of choice of the Maasai. It is used to defend cattle, the community, and the warrior himself against wild animals and invaders. Constructed from wood and iron, it is deemed to be the single most valued personal possession after livestock. There are countless romanticized tales that center around these tall, imposing Maasai giants, fighting courageously against man and beast. They are the mighty lion hunters of Africa, brave of heart, and able assassins of any human attacker.
