Description
The salt lake of Yiwika. Ownership of the former KURELU, mentioned several times already. Salt is a highly prized item, you get it from this pool by there first plant parts that are bruised, in this filthy water and throw it a few hours to leave. One can combine the weather on his shoulders and take home. After drying, it burned and the ashes mixed with salt will be used. No wonder they are very quick on our pure white, clean salt. They eat it raw! On BD/37/192 is my guide to enjoy it. A few females Dabbs quiet in the water around. No wonder these people have all sorts of infectious diseases. Hygiene is unknown. On BD/37/190 can see that someone with the handle of the plants are bushmes bruises. In times of war (in the good old days "when they periodically tribal wars could run, it was a sacred law that when a group of people came for the salt source, the war just fell silent, so that people could go, then it went again.
