The Somba people of the Atacora region open their tata compounds for visitors, with music, dance, and tours led by the families who live there. Guests climb the ladders between floors, learn how the clay walls are built and maintained, and share locally brewed millet beer from a communal calabash. The tata Somba is not a museum piece. It is a living home.
