The famous Mundari cattle camps are desolate places. They usually settle in areas close to the banks of the Nile River in South Sudan. The smoke from hundreds of bonfires covers the immensity of a vast, arid, dry, and hot land. Amidst that smoke, naked men, cows with giant horns, and the iconographic Mundari totem, which inspired the Last Places logo, can be seen.

Mundari cows are of a species called Ankole-Watusi. Ankole-Watusi. They are characterized by their huge horns. These sacred animals form the central axis of their lives, their culture, and their religion. The spiritual sphere can only be accessed if cattle are used as mediums and the energies are channeled through the ash on the skin.

The semi-nomadic life of the Mundari is conditioned by the amount of pasture that exists for cattle. Their food and economic sustenance depend on these animals, which are also markers of social status and the possibility of getting married and starting a family, since the dowry is fixed in units of cattle.

The cattle camps are a learning space for the Mundari boys. The elders teach the younger generations the tribal ways until they are mature enough to pass the rite to become adults. Male members of the community usually live in the cattle camps, although some women accompany them to carry out some tasks. Older people, pregnant women, and the rest of society often live in towns.

Young people and adults are in charge of caring for and grazing their flock. The infants' tasks are to regroup the cattle, milk the cows, and pile the cow dung to set up the bonfires. The children also carry out a peculiar practice: to increase milk production, children stimulate the cows by flowing into their vaginas.

The scarification on the forehead of men is performed during the initiation ritual. Through the use of knives, five successive V-shaped marks are made, as a reference to the horns of the cows. After the ritual, young boys are presented with a cow and a proper name associated with it.

The Mundari cover their bodies and those of the cows with ash from the bonfires to protect themselves from mosquito bites. In addition, they shower using cow urine and also use this liquid to dye their hair, thus most men have orange hair.
