| Research Abstract |
Frequency of warfare in Lower Omo has been decreasing since 1990s. This study induces hypothesis on social context and changes due to duration of "peace". It is suggested that stronger intervention of local government and cultural protocol of peacemaking affect frequency and intensity of warfare and cattle raiding, and that buffer zone between hostile groups has been narrower as peaceful period lasts.
