Overview
The Bukuit Ne Tilil ne mi Arorutiet Ne Bo Keny ak Arorutiet Ne Leel is the Holy Bible in the Kalenjin language, which belongs to the Kalenjin ethnic group of Nilotic origin in the Great Rift Valley, western Kenya. This Bible is a significant spiritual resource for the approximately 3 million Kalenjin people, comprising sub-tribes such as Elgeyo, Endorois, Kipsigis, Marakwet, Nandi, Pokot, Sabaot, Terik, and Tugen. Historically pastoralists, the Kalenjin have a rich cultural heritage and have undergone a linguistic and ethnic unification process since the 1950s, adopting the name "Kalenjin", which means "I say (to you)" in Nandi.
Interesting Facts
- Cultural Significance: The Kalenjin are believed to have migrated from Sudan around 2,000 years ago and have a deeply rooted cultural identity.
- Linguistic Heritage: The term "Kalenjin" was adopted in the late 1940s and early 1950s to unify various Nandi-speaking peoples under a common identity.
- Worship Tradition: Historically, the Kalenjin worshipped "Asis" or Isis, reflecting their spiritual heritage before the spread of Christianity.
