Nilotic peoples

Nilotic peoples are peoples indigenous to the Nile Valley that speak Nilotic languages, which comprise a large sub-group of the Nilo-Saharan languages and are spoken in South Sudan, Uganda, Kenya, and northern Tanzania and including Masai. The Nilotic peoples include the Luo, Kalenjin, Dinka, Nuer, Shilluk, Ateker, and the Maa-speaking peoples, each of which is a cluster of several ethnic groups.〔
Nilotes form the majority of the population in South Sudan, which is believed to be their original point of dispersal. They also constitute the second-largest group of peoples inhabiting the African Great Lakes region (after the Bantu peoples), with a notable presence in southwestern Ethiopia as well.
Nilotes primarily adhere to Christianity and traditional faiths, including the Dinka religion.
==Name==
The terms ''Nilotic'' and ''Nilote'' were previously used as racial sub-classifications, based on anthropological observations of the distinct body morphology of many Nilotic speakers. These perceptions were later widely discarded by 20th century social-scientists,〔(The Forging of Races Cambridge University Press ) THE FORGING OF RACES - by Colin Kidd Excerpt〕 but today they again find support in population genetics.〔(Sarah A. Tishkoff et al.: The Genetic Structure and History of Africans and African Americans )〕
These terms are now foremost used to distinguish "Nilotic people" based on ethnic/linguistic affiliation. Etymologically, the terms Nilotic and Nilote (singular nilot) derive from the Nile Valley; specifically, the Upper Nile and its tributaries, where most Sudanese Nilo-Saharan-speaking people live.〔(Encyclopædia Britannica Article: Nilot )〕
