Young Surma warrior in Omo Delta, Southern Ethiopia Kibbish, Ethiopia - December 30, 2007: A young warrior of the Surma of the  tribe is standing in the evening light near his village.

Warriors of the Surma tribe at a blood drinking ritual Kibish, Ethiopia - February 6, 2013: Young warriors of the Surma people are opening the jugular vein on a cow with a bow and an arrow. Like most pastoralists the Surma people are drinking regulary (mostly on special events or rituals) fresh blood which is drained from the animal's jugular vein. Please note that their lifestock is the most important good for the Surma people so the cows are not seriosly injured in this ritual, only some minutes after the wound at the vein is closed again the animals are back with their herd. The Surma are sedentary pastoral people and live in a remote corner of south-western Ethiopia and across the border in Sudan, virtually untouched by the modern world. surma men stock pictures, royalty-free photos & images
