Did all Africans come from one group of peoples? Masai warriors of Kenya still dress in the traditional way and carry long spears. There have always been many different peoples in Africa, just like in Europe. Some are very tall - for example, the Masai of Kenya, the Dinka of Sudan, and the Tutsi of Rwanda.
