The Masai of today remains intact with much of its tradition existing and has ably resisted the influences of the Western world but in the process of adopting some changes is slowly and surely taking roots. The changes being brought about by external influences is slowly transforming the Masai into something of life lived by the rest of the world albeit in a dire situation The Masai is transforming and the unique colors of their once vibrant nomadic life is turning into the standard hues of life as seen by the rest of the world. Time will come, the Masai would be just a name for a tribe that once traveled the plains of Northwestern Africa, a memory of a once living civilization.
