Naser

Naser lies on the Sobat River, east of its meeting with the White Nile. The river carries water from the Ethiopian highlands and the Pibor basin across a broad, seasonally flooded plain. Nuer communities inhabit its banks: the Lou are associated with the southern bank and the eastern Jikany with the northern bank. Cattle and fishing are important in a landscape where the extent of water and grassland changes with the seasons.
