JIENG (DINKA) AND ITS SECTIONS WITH SUBSECTIONS

Image
By
1.


1.   Rek Amou Marol
2. Padang Ayuel Jiel
3. Twic 
4. Agaar Speaking groups
5. Bor 

The sections of Jieng Rek 

Rek is the largest Dinka section composed of 57 Subsections or cheifdoms found in 3 States of War Keu aka Bahr El Gahzal (Wau, Aweil, Warrap) 

1. Aguok Mou Akeen
2. Apuk Giir Thiik
3. Awan Chan and Awan Mou
3. Malual Gier-Nyang
4. Wuot Tonj (19 chiefdoms of Tonj) 
5. Marial Baai aka Marial Wau 
6. Kuach Ayok 

The sections of Jieng Padang 

1. Ngok Lual Yak-Baliet County 
2. Ngok Deng Kuol-Abyei Administrative Area
3. Luacjang aka Luac Aguer Adeel ( in Tonj)
4. Luackoth
5. Nyarweng of Duk Payuel
6. Dongjol-Akoka County 
7. Nyiel-Malut County
8. Ageer
9. Paweny Atar
10. Alor Kur Kuot-Abiemnhom County
11. Panaruu of Panriang County
12. Abaliang-Renk County 
13. Marbeek (Rut, Thoi, Alual) 

The sections of AGaar Speaking Group were wrongly identified by their close brothers of Rek of Warrap and Malual of Aweil...In reality, the below 3 mentioned sections of Ciec, Atuot and Aliab were wrongly misconceived and wrongly added into Agar...So, it should be refixs.

1. Ciec Manyiel
2. Atuot
3. Aliab
4. Agaar Madong 
5. Gok Arol Kachuol

NB: {The above group DO NOT identify as Agaar with the exception of Agaar subsection, the word Agaar here is used for grouping only. }

• Ciec Manyiel, originally refers as Jieng...This section is under Jieng or independently known as Jieng for they are the true origin of Jieng (Dinka). So, Ciec/Jieng is not Agar. It holds its own subsections of Kuacdit, Kuacthii, Ajiek, Pajiek, Gok and Ajhak.

• Atuot:--This is an independent tribe that holds its own subsections of Luach, Jilek, Akot, Kuek, Rorkeich. So, it is a tribe as claimed by some individuals of that particular. 

NB:-Atuot is not a tribe due to some prime reasons. However, the reason that Atuot is not a tribe is because Apak, Akot, Kuek Rorkec are not originally Reel speakers. It is their geographical location that has earlier laid them under Atuot. In a real sense, Atuot is not a tribe, but it's the section of Dinka tribe namely, 'Dinka Atuot'

• Aliab too is not under agar. 

NB:--In Lakes State, we have Dinka Ciec, Dinka Agar, Dinka Aliab, Dinka Gok, Dinka Atuot and Dinka Apaak. 

 
Jieng Bor sections
1. Bor (Athooc and Gok) 
2. Hol of Duk Padiet 
3. Twic Ajang Duot

NB: Twic Ajang Duot and Nyarweng are both found in Jonglei and were part of Bor district however now ethnically they solely identify as Twic and Hol with Athooc and Gok identitying as Bor. Nyarweng is ethnically Padang though it’s in the same district as Hol who shares with them Duk county which was part of Bor district. 

Twic Section

Twic Mayardit is a section of its own though it’s sometimes added together with Twic Ajang Duot.
 
Twic has 6 subsections or 6 chiefdoms that will be an article of its own.

Note: These groupings and sections of Jieng are based on the language or accent. 

If there’s any mistake we apologize and it was not intentional, corrections are allowed, comment with your correction and we will try to edit and update it. 

Thanks,
Gum Manyang Luk.

AFRICAN AMERICAN FIRSTS - MOSES FLEETWOOD WALKER (1857-1924)

By
Moses Fleetwood Walker, often called Fleet, was the first African American to play major league baseball in the nineteenth century. Born October 7, 1857, in Mount Pleasant, Ohio, Walker was the fifth of six children born to parents, Dr. Moses W. Walker, a physician, and Caroline Walker, a midwife. Oberlin College admitted Walker for the fall 1878 semester. In 1881, he played in all five games of the new varsity baseball team at Oberlin. Before the end of the year, however, Walker left Oberlin to play baseball for the University of Michigan. In July 1882, Walker married Bella Taylor and the couple had three children. Fleetwood Walker was able to earn money as a catcher. He played individual games for the White Sewing Machine Company of Cleveland (August 1881), the New Castle (Pennsylvania) Neshannocks (1882), and with the Toledo Blue Stockings of the Northwestern League (1883).

๐—˜๐——๐— ๐—ข๐—ก๐—— ๐—”๐—Ÿ๐—•๐—œ๐—จ๐—ฆ (1829-1880)

By
Edmond Albius was born a slave in 1829, in St. Suzanne, on the island Rรฉunion. His mother died during childbirth, and he never knew his father. In his youth he was sent to work for Botanist Fereol Bellier-Beaumont. The vanilla plant was flourishing in Mexico, and by the late 18th century, a few plants were sent to Paris, London, Europe and Asia, in hopes of producing the bean in other areas. Although the vine would grow and flower, it would not produce any beans. French colonists brought vanilla beans to Rรฉunion around 1820. Beaumont had been teaching young Edmond how to tend to the various plants on his estate. He taught him how to hand-pollinate a watermelon plant. Beaumont had previously planted vanilla beans, and had just one vine growing for over twenty years, but was also unable to produce any beans on the vine. Young Edmond began to study the plant and made a discovery. He carefully probed the plant and found the part of the flower that produced the pollen. Edmond th...
