Sanduru

When the Hallanders established their colony in Kealings City, they gave no time to consider that their new city was in the middle of the land already occupied by the Sanduru people. The establishment of the colony had both positive and negative impacts on the Sanduru. On one hand, the Sanduru people have become the most educated and knowledgeable concerning colonial ways of life. On the other hand, the Sanduru (followed closely by the Ligabbi) have faced the brunt of Hallandic persecution, including imprisonment and execution for voicing their concerns. Their traditional homelands range along the Suswete River from the coasts (which they share with the Sibuari traders) up to the lands of the Tsaravu, a distance of around 500 miles.
The Sanduru are cattle herders who migrated from the north a few hundred years ago. Neighboring the Ligabbi, the two tribes fought terrible wars over the centuries, but they also managed long periods of intermingling, eventually sharing many cultural traits. Sanduru family groups form together as clans, which are ruled over by a council of elders heavily influenced by their medicine men. Sanduru believe that their god resides inside the highest peak of the Ligabe Moutnains, and they orient their homes with the door facing that peak. They don't bury their dead-they leave them in the wilds for predators to consume. Initiation ceremonies for both boys and girls involve circumcision. Most Sanduru are agricultural farmers, building round wooden homes covered in thatch and grass.
