Rolling Eyes
I have notice there is a problem in identifying clans (Bororiet)and family (oret)
Among the Nandi there are 8 clans eg Kapchepkendi,Kaptalam, Kamililo,kapsiondoi,Kabochek etc and there are 16 oretunwek eg Kiboiis,kipyegen,kimoongoi etc and each of these oretunwek have a totem or animal associated with and some have 2 totems eg kiboiis Lelekwek and kiboiis solobtiot and thus there are 26 totems among the Nandis. Shocked

Thanks alot!Iam wooking on research about the Nandi clans (bororiet) and family (oret) and totem (Tiondo)!
I have divided my research into 4 approaches with sampling done in Aldai- The origin of Nandis, then Kipkaren salient, Ziwa and Lesoss!
Is there anyone who would like to partner with me over this!
