There's a tribe called Masai here; where during the marriage ceremony, the family of the bride brings a lot of cows and bulls and the father of the father of the bride groom has to shoot a spear through the herd; where the spear ends; then all that herd belongs to the family of the gloom. So, for there culture, the bride pays price for the gloom using cattle," I wish I was in their culture ." So my friend who is a Masai requested me to escort him to their ceremony and it happened here today, and I saw a group of cattle I haven't seen before. Do you have cultures there where they take a large scale herd as bride price?
