Hadza People
The Hadza, or Hadzabe (''Wahadzabe'' in Swahili), are a Tanzanian indigenous ethnic group mostly based in southwest Karatu District of Arusha Region. They live around Lake Eyasi in the central Rift Valley and in the neighboring Serengeti Plateau. There are, as of 2015, between 1,200 and 1,300 Hadza people living in Tanzania, however only around 400 Hadza still survive exclusively based on the traditional means of foraging.

Name The Hadza go by several names in the literature. 'Hadza' itself just means 'human being'. 'Hadzabe' (''hazabee'') is the plural, and 'Hadzapi' (''hazaphii'') means 'they are men'. 'Hatza' and 'Hatsa' are older German spellings. The language is sometimes distinguished as 'Hadzane' (''hazane'') 'of the Hadza'. 'Tindiga' is from Swahili ''watindiga'' 'people of the marsh grass' (from the large spring in Mangola) and ''kitindiga'' (language of the same). 'Kindiga' is apparently a form of the same from one of the local Bantu languages, presumably Isanzu. 'Kangeju' (pronounced ''Kangey ...
