Vazimba

Vazimba is a name given to an ancient group of people who lived on the island of Madagascar a very very long time ago. They were the very first people to live there and were very clever and resourceful.

They were experts at making tools and weapons out of the things they found around them, like wood and stone. They also knew how to grow crops like rice and other yummy things to eat.

The Vazimba people were very magical and believed in the power of the spirits in the forest. They made special offerings to these spirits to ask for good luck and blessings.

Even though the Vazimba people lived a long time ago and are no longer around, their legacy is still important in the culture and traditions of the people of Madagascar today.
