Description
A group of women and children encountered on the road, described as a group of Kisii people. The women are carrying large baskets and pots on their heads. The clothing of overthrown-wrap as seen here was not much practiced among the Luo, as it was in the highlands among the Kipsigis, Nandi and Kisii. [Gilbert Oteyo 9/9/2004]
