Authentic villages of the Maffa
On Col de Koza, a mountain pass situated at an altitude of eleven hundred meters, you have a magnificent view of the surrounding area. On the artfully landscaped terraces, the Mafa, the ethnic group in this region, grow millet (type of maize). The villages full of round huts (owned by the men) with pointed roofs seem to stick against the steep slopes, the number of huts of a man is determined by the number of women he has. With their mud and stone walls and roofs of dried millet stems, the villages are very similar to small fortresses or eagle nests
