Interesting insight into a little known culture. How about some description? What’s she smoking?

They are smoking tobacco(she). The recepticle below contains water which serves to filter the smoke.

That’s something like a bong then, I wonder if it’s tobacco or Mary Jane, it’s Ethiopia after all. What a wonderful picture too, so relaxed and earthy!
