Ngete (Ant Hills)
During the dry season up north, they burn off the country. At the end of the dry season before the wet starts the ants start building their mounds. The height of these anthills tells the people how big the wet season is going to be. Long time ago the elders would know to move to higher ground. Especially when they lived by rivers creeks or in low lying areas.
