BANTU Tribe

Bantu Africa is made up of hundreds of Bantu-related languages and many different ethnic groups. However, they all share the same cultural characteristics.

They met many new people, learned new skills, and shared their own. Bantu are animal herders and farmers.  They have also learned to make crafts from iron. The Bantu people have followed rivers and streams and migrated throughout Africa.  They met many new people, learned new skills, and shared their own. The Bantu Migration

Today over 60 million people in central and southern Africa speak Bantu-based languages and share some part of Bantu culture. Bantu who settled in areas where there was a strong Arab presence are Muslim. Others, living in parts of Africa influenced by missionary efforts are Christian.

Still others follow traditional animist religions, believing spirits are found in natural objects and surroundings.  They may feel a spiritual presence in rocks, trees, a waterfall, or a particularly beautiful place in the forest.
