Mundari / Mandari

The Mundari form a buffer between the largely pastoral Atuot and Aliab Dinka; the masses of the agricultural Moro in the west and northwest; and Bor Dinka in the east and north east. (South Sudan)

In the south-west they are flanked by Bari-speaking Nyangwara and the Bari to the south and southeast.

The Mundari are divided into three sections namely:

• The earlier indigenous population
• The Bora
• The groups of immigrants into Mundari who have gradually succeeded in establishing powerful chiefdoms.

The main towns are Terekeka, Tombe and Tali.
