The Proto-Kalenjin and their Neighbors
Map Creator:
Christopher Ehret
Source: Southern Nilotic History. 1971. Northwestern University Press. p. 65.
Date Created: 1971
Map Description:
This map illustrates the approximate locations of the proto-Kalenjin people and their neighbors. These descendants of the Southern Nilotes were closely related to the Kitoki (known also as Bukusu or Yumbu), and shared many cultural as well as linguistic aspects. The proto-Kalenjin (and now, modern Kalenjin) economy was centered around grain cultivation and the raising of livestock, and their societal structure has remained relatively unchanged over the centuries (Ehret).
