Photograph @massimobassanoA Pokot lady is posing for me in her hut, in Kenya.She was there, like waiting for me. No a sound, no a word. I moved inside and show my camera (I was without my interpreter). She moved the lance in her hands and I understood it was an "ok!". Light was coming softly from the aperture of the hut. I used just that one.The Pokot people (also spelled Pökoot) live in West Pokot County and Baringo County in Kenya and in the Pokot District of the eastern Karamoja region in Uganda. They form a section of the Kalenjin ethnic group and speak the Pökoot language, which is broadly similar to the related Marakwet, Nandi, Tuken and other members of the Kalenjin language group. Kenya's 2009 census puts the total number of Pokot speakers at about 620,000 in Kenya (roughly 133,000 Pokot in Baringo county and close to 500,000 in West Pokot county). In addition, there are close to 100,000 Pokot speakers in Uganda. A fair estimate thus places the number of Pokot speakers in Kenya and Uganda at 700,000.Hill & Plains PokotEditBased on areal and cultural differences, the Pokot people can be divided into two groups; the Hill Pokot and the Plains Pokot.The Hill Pokot live in the rainy highlands in the west and in the central south of the Pokot area and are both farmers and pastoralists. The Plains Pokot live in the dry and infertile plains, herding cows, goats and sheep, thus are pastoralists.#Kenya #Pokot #hut #Africa @natgeoyourshot
