Overview
-
The Koutammakou in northern Togo is a cultural landscape that is inhabited by the Batammariba people, also known as Tammari or Taberma people. The Tabermas are known for their two-story clay huts or ‘Tatas’ which are built out of earth as a fortress for defense against invaders. Dancing with the Taberma women in their gazelle horn headdress and climbing a sacred baobab tree are unique experiences not to be missed.
