Editor,
 Some people have been asking for a book on central Nyanza Luos by Shadrack Malo.
 I have a copy.
 TApindi, the names of Uss in Gem has no special meaning.
 They are just names like Nyawara, Muhanda, Ukaya, Uyonga, Akala, Ulumbu, Sagam, Jina etc just to mention a few.
 Jo Gem even had chiefs like Odera Ulalo and many more.

Subject:Â ORIGIN OF JO GEM by Shadrack Malo
That is a good idea to know about origins. Is there any work done on other classes of Luos? I would like to know about the origins and how they all separated to the present groupings.
Thanks
