Tata Somba are the traditional houses of the Somba people, located in northern Benin and Togo. They are built of mud in the form of small, two-story fortresses: the ground floor is used for storing livestock and grain, while the upper floor is where the family lives. Their architecture symbolizes protection, spirituality, and a connection to the ancestors. #inspirationofafrica | Quim Fàbregas - Fotografía y Viajes.
