Hadendoa Man - Standing on one leg
Hadendoa Man - Eastern Sudan - Standing on one leg in a characteristic style, akin to the storks of the Upper Nile. Hadendoa is the name of a nomadic subdivision of the Beja people. Their elaborate hairdressing gained them the name of Fuzzy-wuzzies among the British troops stationed in the region during the latter decades of the 19th century
