the Wodaabe (people of the taboo) nomads of Niger, Mokao - National Geographic October 1983

when Wodaabe greet each other, they cannot look each other directly in the eyes; during daylight a man cannot hold his wife’s hand in public, call her by her name, or speak to her in a personal way; parents may never talk directly to their first and second born children or refer to them by name.
