...The daily tasks of the women are to milk the cattle in the morning and evening, and to fetch water as required. By using their donkeys it is possible for them to bring back
enough water to last two or three days. When the settlement moves, on average about
once every five weeks, each woman is responsible for moving her hut and rebuilding it.
All the necessary movables, including hides, wooden containers and important struts in
the framework of the hut, can normally be carried by two donkeys. Older women rely on
their daughters, their younger co-wives, and their sons' wives for help in all these
tasks"
