Koutammakou is a cultural landscape designated in 2004 as an UNESCO World Heritage Site, in Koutammakou, Togo, December 2, 2024. The Tamberma people are famous for their two-story fortified houses, known as Takienta (Tata, Tata Somba or Ditammari) in which the ground floor houses livestock at night, internal alcoves are used for cooking, and the upper floor contains a rooftop courtyard that is used for drying grain, as well as containing sleeping quarters and granaries. These mud-houses are the Tamberma preferred style of living. A woman collects in a metal basket « Monkey Bread » which are the edible fruits of the African baobab tree. The fruits are large, oval-to-round, and berry-like in most species (usually less than 10 centimetres), and have a tangy taste.
