Abatwa people
A lovely little African mythology in true oral tradition 95
In days gone by before man left footprints in the sands of Africa there were tiny people called the Abatwa who lived with ants It is a hard life filled with dangers and difficulties There are enemies both above and below ground For all we know they may still share their lives with ants Tola and his wife Noti are part of an expedition to another nest to exchange a party of marriageable youngsters They are riding escort on soldier ants On a journey filled with all sorts of hazards and death Tola entertains the youths with folk tales Abatwa author Charles G Dyer.
