Description

This is a little pool surrounded by acacia thorn trees, shrubs and grasses. This pool may be at a place called Unyolo as the original records say (little pool of Unyolo) but the area is difficult to ascertain. Such ponds or pools of water are often used for domestic and cattle watering in dry areas of Luo country. [Gilbert Oteyo 9/9/2004]
