| Anthropology Professor Dianna Shandy is a specialist on the Nuer, a group entangled in the net of Sudan's arbitrary colonial borders. |
|
| Other, much smaller ethnic groups include Southeast Asians, African Americans, and Nuer refugees from The Sudan. |
|
| In the example of the Nuer, there is nothing to spend, nor is time passed or counted. |
|
| The force employed was the local Nuer militia, backed by government troops and aircraft. |
|
| In 2003, he fought against pro-government Nuer factions for control of Wahdah province, but lost. |
|
| After meeting McCune, Machar told his supporters from the powerful Nuer tribe of southern Sudan that his aim was not to control Khartoum. |
|
| Garang and Reik Machar, his erstwhile Nuer rival, for years locked horns in a furious struggle for supremacy. |
|
| They speak Acholi, Amharic, Bemba, Chaldean, Dinka, Pashto, Kinyarwanda, Nuer, Somali, and many other languages. |
|
| The chorus trades Nuer lines with Arabic affirmations, something that would have been next to impossible only a year ago. |
|
| As we walked to the open-air worship area, one class after the other sang a psalm or hymn in the Nuer language. |
|
| The Nuer have six parallel lines on the forehead, and the Ja'aliin mark lines on their cheeks. |
|
| However, some contrary evidence is provided by the failure of the Nilotic language Nuer to become more popular. |
|
| The larger mode is the size of very tall populations such as Tutsi or Nuer, and the middle mode is approximately Khoisan-sized. |
|
| An estimated 40 per cent of the southern Sudanese are Dinka, while 20 per cent belong to the culturally and linguistically related Nilotic Nuer and Shilluk ethnic groups. |
|
| The perpetrators of political turmoil in Juba are not Dinka or Nuer, nor any other ethnic people who make up South Sudan. |
|
| The ethnic Nuer and Shilluk, who hold sway in the oil-rich Upper Nile province of southern Sudan, are seeking a greater stake in Sudan's new political dispensation. |
|
| A few months later, when fighting with the government displaced thousands of Nuer, they were able to find refuge in Dinka territory thanks to the bonds forged at Wunlit. |
|
| The Nuer have suffered greatly from the genocidal conflict in southern Sudan, which alas is different from the recently-reported genocidal conflict in western Sudan. |
|
| The Dinka is the largest black tribe in Sudan, related to the Nuer and to another tribe called the Shilluk, in a group defined as the Nilotic tribes. |
|
| This is as true for an anthropologist studying the Nuer, the Bushmen, or Trobriand Islanders as for a historian who must decide what period to study. |
|
|
|
| By its actions after the massacres it has shown its guilt when it went on the media and said that the clashes in Gambela were between the Anuak and Nuer. |
|
| Scroggins chronicles Riek's personal history, including his decision to refuse Nuer initiation rites, and relays the opinions of numerous Riek observers. |
|
| Sudanese tribal language gospel radio has already been going out from the new facility, bringing God's Word to many thousands in Dinka and Nuer villages. |
|
| He had to overcome intense heat, inhospitable conditions and disease in his pursuit to make lasting records of the lives of the Shilluk, Dinka, Nuer, Nuba and Jur peoples. |
|
| The Shilluk constitute a historically influential state along the White Nile, and their language is fairly closely related to Dinka and Nuer. |
|
| In December 2011, tribal clashes in Jonglei intensified between the Nuer White Army of the Lou Nuer and the Murle. |
|
| Likewise, without sequence checking it would not be possible to guarantee NFD output for Nuer. |
|
| Reports of Nuer being targeted by state security forces abound. |
|
| The Nuer have dozens of names for cattle because of the cattle's particular histories, economies, and environments. |
|
| For example, the Nuer of Sudan have an elaborate vocabulary to describe cattle. |
|
| These languages include Nuer, Anuak, Nyangatom, Majang, Suri, Me'en, and Mursi. |
|
| The host Bari community of Juba felt that they would be acculturated by the bigger communities such as the Dinka and the Nuer, coupled with issues of land grabbing. |
|
| The largest ethnic groups among these include the Nuer and Anuak. |
