SPITTING ON FOLKS AS GREETINGS

Image:Pinterest  SPITTING ON FOLKS AS GREETINGS Well is is not just an ordinary  spitting,it is a tradition by the Masai tribe (an ethnic African group found in Kenya and Tanzania). They have an unusual way of greeting each other: they spit on one another  as their own greeting tradition.  Their men would spit on a new born baby and say it is a bad baby,so that the baby will enjoy a good life.  Believing that praising the baby will make it life a terrible life. It is a tradition I believe they have been practicing for so long. Their warriors would also spit on their hands before offering them for shake when greeting others as a sign of respect.
