Ranohira

Ranohira lies beside the Isalo massif in southern Madagascar, in country associated with the Bara. Sandstone has been worn into cliffs, deep canyons and strange rock formations, with pools and streams hidden among them. The Bara are known for raising zebu cattle, a source of wealth as well as food. Their tombs are placed among the rocks of Isalo, linking the mountain landscape to the memory of the dead.
