Their lives are barely affected by the outside world, and what they need to survive are extracted from nature.

Ethiopia's history is documented as one of the oldest. According to recent findings, the species Homo Sapiens, to which we belong, would be originally from that region, and then it spread around the world. The oldest remains of a human ancestor ever found, estimated at about five million years, were discovered in the Awash valley, in ethiopia. The most famous fossil in the world, known by Lucy, with 3,2 million years old, was discovered in the same area in 1974.
