Since when was TRIBE equivalent to ETHNICITY??

ETHNICITY = Bantu, Nilotes, Cushites etc etc

TRIBE= Kikuyu, Meru, luyha etc etc

Two people may have different tribes but share the same ethnicity...

All that said, Inter tribal marriages tend to work only if the couple are still from the same ethnic group! eg Kikuyu & kamba or Luos & kisii



So according to your level of education Luoz and Kissis are from the same "ethnic group"?
Surely the money spent on your education should have been used to build more gabbions back in the early 80s....

Wewe ulisomea wapi? Bantu, Nilotes, Cushites e.t.c are language groups. ethnicity has all to do with culture and identity, tribes have everything to do with people of an ethnic group living together.

Finally someone who did anthropology.


Finally Mawinder and Masukuma did the same course in campo.

For the record I didn't take anthropology,I took the course I chose as first choice before pursuing a diploma and a Masters in the same but all that was a waste of time as I earn a living through other means.I should not have wasted my time.Wasted years.
