Description:
A dry-stone pig sty with a small entrance at the base and a rough grass covering, situated in a gap in a fence enclosing an area where they can graze during the day.
Predominantly pastoral, the Ingessana kept their herds of cattle, sheep and goats at grazing grounds often large distances (Evans-Pritchard estimates up to 3 or 4 hours) from their hill habitations, but kept pigs in the villages.

Evans-Pritchard notes that 'Besides cows they keep flocks of sheep and goats and a large number of pigs.
Muhammedan influence has at present had little effect with respect to pigs.' [Chris Morton 3/2/2004]
