Furiiru people
The Bafuliiru people (also known as the Fuliiru, Bafuliru, Kifuliru, Kifuliiru, Bafuliru, Bafuliiru and Bafuliru) are an African ethnic group, a sub-group of the Kivu.〔"Fuliiru." ''Encyclopedia of the Peoples of Africa and the Middle East, Volume 1'' (Jamie Stokes, editor) (2009). Infobase: p. 234.〕〔Johan Pottier, ''Re-Imagining Rwanda: Conflict, Survival and Disinformation in the Late Twentieth Century'' (2002). Cambridge University Press: p. 16.〕〔"(Furiiru )." ''Ethnologue: Languages of the World'' (16th ed) (2009). M. Paul Lewis (editor), 2009. Dallas: SIL International.〕
The Furiiru mainly inhabit the east-central highlands of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Zaire), in the South Kivu province south of Lake Kivu and north and northwest of Uvira, along the Ruzizi plain near the border with Rwanda and Burundi, where some Furiiru also live.〔James Stuart Olson, ''The Peoples of Africa: An Ethnohistorical Dictionary''. Greenwood: 1996, p. 183.〕〔〔"Africa Report" (Vol. 10), African-American Institute, p. 9〕 In 2009, their population estimate numbered over 250,000.〔 A 1999 estimate of Furiiru-language speakers placed the number at 300,000.〔 The Furiiru are connected to the Vira in a Furiiru-Vira culture cluster.〔Daniel P. Biebuyck, ''Lega Culture: Art, Initiation, and Moral Philosophy Among a Central African People''. University of California Press: 1973, p. 20 and p. 183.〕 Both groups are interlacustrine, living between the African Great Lakes.
The Fuliiru speak the Fuliiru language, a Bantu language. They are predominantly farmers, although they also own and raise cattle for milk and meat.〔 Traditionally the Furiiru were the only highland Bantu-speaking people to be organized into a "single, relatively small state" which was highly centralized.〔''Congo Democratic Republic Foreign Policy and Government Guide, Vol 1: Strategic Information and Developments'' (2007). Washington: International Business Publications: p. 99.〕〔
In June 2014, 35 Fuliiru were killed in an attack on the town of Mutarule. The attack was believed to be ethnically motivated.
