  1. 2020 The Myth of the Pure Tribe debunked 3 cit. The colonial idea that Kenya was divided into ancient, unmixed tribes with separate bloodlines does not survive contact with the genetic evidence. Every group carries a mix of Cushitic, Nilotic, Bantu and forager ancestry, and communities absorbed newcomers and neighbours throughout their history. A tribe is a cultural and linguistic identity that people can join, leave and reshape, not a sealed genetic lineage. The DNA discredits the notion of pure descent that the label implies. culture / science / society ●●●●
