Description: 
Two boys splashing water from a spring-fed stream to wash, possibly during a break in herding goats. 
Predominantly pastoral, the Ingessana kept their herds of cattle, sheep and goats at grazing grounds often large distances (Evans-Pritchard estimates up to 3 or 4 hours) from their hill habitations.

Evans-Pritchard notes that 'Soda, the site of the old Government Station and the place from where I did my work, is one of those partly enclosed plains lying on the south-west edge of the massif... 
The district of Soda has an everlasting stream of fresh spring water which flows through it.' [Chris Morton 27/1/2004]
