After Morning breakfast at the Hotel we drive to Dinka tribe. Dinka are known to be the largest tribe in South Sudan also being the tribe with the tallest people Dinka religious beliefs and practices also reflect their lifestyle. The Dinka religion, like most other Nilotic faiths, is polytheitic, but has one creator, Nhialic, who leads the Dinka pantheon of gods and spirits. He is generally distant from humans and does not directly interact with them. The sacrificing of oxen by the “masters of the fishing spear” is central to Dinka religious practice. Young men become adults through an initiation ritual that includes marking the forehead with a sharp object. During this ceremony, they acquire a second cow-color name. The Dinka believe they derive ⁹religious power from nature and the world around them rather than from scripture.

Men and women eat separately. When milk supply is low, children get priority. Children are fed milk from 9–12 months. After about one year, children start eating solid food (porridge). The life of the Dinka cattle keepers predominantly depends on milk.
