Introducing The Nuer

    Throughout the duration of my exploration, many topics will come arise every week while I discover different aspects of the Nuer. From their history, the birds that dwell in their region, and cultural survival. The Nuer is concentrated in South Sudan, with some representatives also found in southwestern Ethiopia. The Nuer language is a Nilotic language closely related to the speech of the Dinka and Atwot. Oral traditions indicate that the Nuer have moved east of the Nile River only during the last 200 years. Just some facts to stay interested on and to follow along with my journey. Many topics will come arise as I explore this foreign tribe, so stay tuned.
