Lip plates, also known as lip discs, originated among various ethnic groups in Africa and South America. They are particularly associated with the Mursi and Surma tribes in Ethiopia, where women traditionally insert wooden or clay plates into their lower lips as a cultural practice. This custom is often linked to beauty ideals, social status, and tribal identity. Similar practices have also been observed among some indigenous groups in the Amazon Basin.

When the Lithosphere plates move, the surface of the earth vibrates. These vibrations can travel all around theearth. These vibrations are called Earth Quake.
Seismic waves originate along fault lines because that is an edge of a tectonic plate. Imagine the tectonic plates as pieces of a puzzle. The fault line is the wavy side or edge in the piece and the pieces fit together. Whenever the plates move, they rub against the tectonic plates or puzzle pieces on their sides creating seismic waves.
