Mucubal are a subgroup of the Herero ethnic group settling in Southern Angola.
70.000 Mucubal live in a large area between the slopes of Chela Mounts in the north, Chiange to east, and Cunene River to the south, where they are believed to have stopped during the Himba migration in the 18th Century.
They are also Bantu speaking people. It is historically asserted that the Mucubals are originally from Kenya and are related to the Massais. They are semi nomadic pastoralists living as cattle raisers and engaged in agriculture.
