With profound gratitude to all who shared a lineage, a totem, a saying, or a correction. This is their work as much as mine.

A record of the sixteen Nandi clans, their totems, sayings, and the lineages — the houses (Kapchi) — gathered under each.

Drawn from the recollections of Pot Tera Chebo Chebaigeei and Chebo Koisamo, and corrected by the patient voices of more than a hundred contributors.

Corrections, additions, and contributions are welcome — they will be incorporated in future editions.
