Yes Oromos also have many clans, but can be grouped into bigger sub-groups.
You can read more about the Karrayyu here http://kwekudee-tripdownmemorylane....arrayyu-people-east-africas-cushitic.html?m=1
They have unique face scars too and i think have had some problems with the Afar
i read somewhere that oromo were like gypsies..they dont really have an identity but rather many diffrent tribes mixed and assimilated into them.
I have no idea to be honest. The OP probably knows more, I'm not that aware of the Karayu.
I think they have kept original oromo culture going by the link i sent, but the scars i am not sure, maybe from afar
A lot of pictures on thr link
I translated to 'castes'?
They are considered the center of ancient Oromo tradition and Oromo tend to refer to them as the original Oromos, but they are not in the many anymore. Many have died especially with the recent Ethiopian land grab deals.
Yes they have kept original oromo culture since their arrival 2 centuries ago. But i think borana are still the original
Not many left of these people no more than 50,000
Thank you
@Knowthyself youre right somalis might be very similaar to this if all still nomadic
Is it possible I could assimilate myself into the Oromo ethnic group? How difficult is it?
I have Akichu Oromo family members. But I want full assimilation.
What's the procedure?

They don't really resemble Afar/Somalis to me, they look closer to Maasai and other nilotic tribes.
