Luo clans are generally patrilineal. This means that clans trace their ancestry to males.

The Luo people have families and customary beliefs like all human beings in the world. The families are members of a clan and eventually of a whole community. Stories about clans among our people have been passed on orally from one generation to the next.

The folklore about clans are based on heroism and feminism. Our goal is to synchronise stories about Luo clans and their legends.
