ORIGINS OF THE VARIOUS LUO SUB-COMMUNITIES


There actually is a very rich literature on the Luo and our ways.  Here is what I consider must read. 
 

History:
1. History of the southern Luo  
Author: Ogot, Bethwell A.

2. The Transformation of a Bantu Settlement into a Luo Ruothdom : A Case Study of the Evolution of the Yimbo Community in Nyanza up to AD 1900"

William Ochieng'

3. A history of the Luo-Abasuba of western Kenya, from A.D. 1760-1940 /  
Author: Ayot, H. Okello

4. Dhoudi moko mag Luo.  
Author: Malo, Shadrak.

5. Kar chakruok mar Luo /
Samuel G Ayany

Ethnological knowledge
Luo customs
1. Luo Kitgi gi Timbegi
Paul Mbuya

2. Richo ema kelo chira
Paul Mbuya

3. The Luo girl from infancy to marriage,  
Author: Ominde, Simeon Hongo.

4. Luo customary law and marriage laws customs.  
Author: Wilson, Gordon M.
 
 And this does not even begin to touch on issues like adopted religious beliefs and practices or the other multiple topics ex.
---------------
One who does not know his or her history is bound to have an enslaved mind so read on people.
