On the left side it is a Kenyan mask            On the right side it is a Maasai, how they call them-
which I have seen during my stay in            selves. He looks very proud but in reality he is
Kenya last year.                                                not proud at all. He has what we are calling a self-                                                                            esteem as he is owner of many cows which 
                                                                             represents the esteem of a Maasai family. I had 
                                                                             the pleasure meet him personally when I was 
                                                                             in Kenya.      
                                                                             The word Maasai mean the their own language
                                                                             Maa: HUMAN. 

Links sieht man eine kenianische              Rechts ist ein Massai abgebildet. Er erscheint stolz 
Maske                                                                aber in Wirklichkeit ist er nur stolz auf seine vielen
                                                                            Rinder, die er sein eigen nennen kann und nach der
                                                                             Anzahl der Rinder wird auch die Wertschätzung 
                                                                             Massaifamilie eingestuft.   
                                                                             In der Sprache der Massai "Maa" bedeutet das Wort:
                                                                             MENSCH.
