Solution
The correct option is B Amare
Amare would have a higher chance of being a part of the Maasai warriors. The Maasai warriors consisted of young Maasais. They were responsible for the protection of the tribe and organised cattle raids. Raiding played an important role as cattle were considered wealth. Young men could only belong to the group of warriors when they proved their worth by raiding the cattle of other pastoral groups or by participating in wars.
