Tata Somba are the traditional houses of the Somba people in northern Benin and Togo. They are built with mud, straw, and wood, resembling small, two-story fortresses. Animals live and grain is stored on the lower level; the family sleeps and finds refuge from the heat on the upper level. Each tata belongs to an extended family and reflects their unity, spirituality, and self-sufficient way of life connected to the land. #inspirationofafrica #fblifestyletyle | Quim Fàbregas
