One of the ethnic groups here, people called the Lutoku, live way on the top of the mountains/hills. I initally thought it was because of the war (when many people retreated to the hills to escape the fighting), but was told that this is their culture. Here are a few pictures of some of the hill-top villages. I can't imagine being a woman in this culture hiking the water, firewood and crops up to the top. They also keep their livestock up there - which is amazing to see.
