Pygmies live in huts made of four rods of wood covered with banana leaves. All cottages have the same equipment: three stones, a pot and a spoon to mix. Pygmies are divided into three groups:
• Mbuti (in the east)
• Twa Bing (Central African Republic)
• Baka Pygmies (Gabon and Cameroon).
Hunting is the most important job Pygmies, not only from the need to obtain food, but also because of the symbolic and traditional craftsman importance of this activity. The best hunters are highly respected in society, especially when they are good at hunting of large animals such as elephants.
