Ali, the bride was/is represented by the elders (male). However, the women were always consulted before they are released to prepare food and the bride.
Ayie is the first step and is for the mum who took good care sleepless night etc to accept and this is appreciated for her good work.Ayie is normally good bahasha cash not cows for maro
This is so interesting. I have laid traps for aluru and even helped with semboring dhok towards home during nyombo. This deserves a part 2. And I also like the video editing. It's nyadhi 😄
The idea of changing the name, in my opinion came with the ID thing. Mostly the oldies didn't have national IDs but the husbands had and for someone to take id you have to present your parents' ID. The rule was amended that you can use your husband's
Dowry negotiations were exclusively the men thing. No women were viciously present there. However, their input were sought for before the day especially those of the side of the woman. Interestingly, there was a set time and date of the paternal grandmother of the lady to have session with the suitor and their peers, just to praise the lady and provide assurance on how well they have trained the lady. On the other hand, the paternal grandmother of the husband was assigned to check the virginity of the lady; something she would do by visiting the bride and groom, the following day of their honeymoon in the morning to see if there is a blood spill in their bedding
And again, not all clans as they're today are referred with the woman's house name as the wife of Ramogi. Some genealogy are out of migration and exclusively took the name of men. For example, Kano was named after Noo who was a man, as well as Sakwa who was a mna
How can group of men kiddnape someone's daughter and weeks latter come for permission to marry that girl, They should come first & and ask for permission.
Luo women did not loss their identity upon marriage instead they would retain and be referred to by their fathers' name, for example, Ali NyaMusau = Ali daughter of Musau, Atieno NyaOdhiambo = Atieno daughter of Odhiambo, etc.
Kikombe regarding the book and how luo clans were named, u are right, but the tone you put gives it wrong meaning. There's a difference between naming, reference and owning. The reason behind this names like gem, sakwa etc is because they were wives of Ramogi. So, the name of the women were in reference to the house one was coming from.
I believe the tone might have come incorrect. I meant to mention that the 'smallest Units of The Luo Clans were named after a Woman!' So much to learn daily. Thanks for the note!!

I believe the right term as it says in Luo history is that The Smallest Units of the Luo Clans were named after a woman!
@@TwoNilotesInAPod absolutely true

Not kidnapping, yaye! No ransom yawa. Isn't culture diversely beautiful!?

Very interesting!
