Kenya Cultural Hunters Nyamira County with Kisii Cultural Dance Entaburuta,

Kenya Cultural Hunters Nyamira County with Kisii Cultural Dance Entaburuta, The Kisii (also known as Abagusii or Gusii) is a 6th largest community of Bantu people who inhabit two counties: Kisii (formerly Kisii District) and Nyamira in Nyanza Province, Western Kenya. Mogusii is culturally identified as their founder and patriarch.
Kisii town - known as Bosongo or Getembe[2] by the locals - is located in Nyanza Province to the southwest of Kenya and is home to the Gusii people. The name Bosongo is believed to have originated from Abasongo (to mean the Whites or the place where white people settle(d)) who lived in the town during the colonial times. The AbaGusii increased to 4.2 million in the latest Kenya
The Abagusii, like the Abaluyia (Luhya), claim to have come from areas further north (Misri) in Egypt. As these Bantu speakers migrated from the west Central Africa, they split up into different groups with the Kisii ending up in Nyanza Province near Lake Victoria. (The Kikuyu, Kamba, and other related Bantu groups in Kenya continued the hunt for richer soil for farming and moved on eastwards across the Rift valley to their current locations. They later settled in the formerly-called Eastern, Central and Rift Valley Provinces of Kenya.)
The Kisii ended up in a geographical location unique among Bantu speaking groups in that they were surrounded on all sides by initially, and later sporadically hostile Nilotic communities of the Luo, Kipsigis, Nandi, and Maasai. Constant sieges resulted in the development of a war-like culture, unlike most Bantu communities, to defend against cattle-raiding neighboring communities. To this day, they have a reputation of being tough, emotionally labile, resilient, and very industrious.
There's strong evidence, however, that periods of peace with neighbouring communities must have led to intermarriages and consequent consanguinity. This is evident in the greatly varied complexion and physique between Abagusii from different subregions of Gusii. Some clans of the Suba (Abasoba in ekegusii) are said to have been completely absorbed by the Luos(Abagere in ekegusii). The Bantu community with a great many similarities with the Abagusii is the Meru (Abameru in ekegusii) from the windward slopes of Mount Kenya, although the Kuria (Abakuria in ekegusii) share a great deal in common with the Abagusii in language and culture as well, and a history of intermarriage has led to prohibition of marriage alliances for specific clans of the Abagusii with some Kuria clans. Additionally, intermarriages between members of the same clans are prohibited.The Kipsigis, the highland nilotes bordering the Abagusii on the northern and northeastern frontier affectionately refer to the Abagusii as kamama (an appellation connoting extensive marriage alliances between the two very dissimilar neighbors). Indeed, many Kipsigis can easily point to someone in their lineage (especially a matriarch) from Gusii.

Awesome. Our ladies are doing it well

That musical instrument is from ancient Egypt and Sumeria. Am very interested in learning Kisii culture. African cultural dances are always great. Kisii and luo culture seem somehow related. I've long suspected kisii tribe be the link between Gema and luo. I keep finding clues to back it up.
