The Mursi, and the neighbouring Suri also known as Surma, are most famous for is their lip-plates, but they also have a rich tradition of scarification, body ornamentation and dress. Another well known aspect of Mursi body decoration is their body painting, although tourists and photographers rarely see the Ã¢â¬ËrealÃ¢â¬â¢ body painting because the Mursi gain more money by Ã¢â¬Ëdressing upÃ¢â¬â¢ for visitors.
