Maasai name: armagirigirianie It is used to make a big fire in the centre of the boma together, where four finger tips of "entasimi" is burned to increase the number of cattle. It is used to make a small fire in the gate, so the cattle can pass through, when it has been away for several days for grassing in other areas, while the women are still staying in the boma. |
