A general term for the inhabitants of the Nuba Hills region in southern Sudan. Although there is a diversity of language, culture, and physical characteristics, they are generally agricultural people who cultivate millet, corn, and cotton, and also raise cattle, sheep, goats, and poultry. Kinship organization is generally matrilineal in the south and patrilineal in other areas. Physical strength is important, and victory in fertility ritual contests is the core of men's outlook on life and behavioral system as a means of gaining status and prestige. In recent years, Islamization has been progressing. Source: Encyclopaedia Britannica Concise Encyclopedia About Encyclopaedia Britannica Concise Encyclopedia Information |
