THE Pokomo are a population of East Africa living in Kenya on the banks of the Tana river. It is mainly farmers who cultivate plantain, cane sugar, rice and corn [ first ] .   Depending on the sources and the context, we observe different forms: Pfokomo, Pokomos, Wafokomo, Wapokomo [ 2 ] .        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Their language is the Pokomo, a Bantu language, whose number of speakers was estimated at 63,000 in 2007 [ 3 ] , but most also use Swahili. Clashes – often qualified by the media as “tribal violence [ 4 ] – regularly oppose the Pokomo to their neighbors to the west, the Orma. In his thesis supported in 2001 [ 5 ] , Martin Pilly explores the multiple origins of this conflict that appeared from the XVII It is A century between Pokomo cultivators and Orma nomadic breeders, mainly around demands related to land property and access to water in a semi-arid region threatened by drought. The members of each community, in their respective mythologies, consider themselves the first inhabitants of the Tana Valley. The November 9, 1970 , for example, livestock belonging to Orma enters a field Pokomo on the edge of the Tana – which triggers a two -day confrontation between the two communities which ends in several wounded on both sides [ 6 ] . In 2001 there were a hundred victims. In 2012 Kenya experienced renewed tensions between Pokomo and Orma. In August about fifty people are massacred, sometimes at the machete [ 7 ] . New violence burst into December 2012 , causing around forty victims during the attack on a village [ 8 ] . \u2191 (in) James Stuart Olson, \u00ab\u00a0Pokomo\u00a0\u00bb, in The Peoples of Africa: An Ethnohistorical Dictionary , Greenwood Publishing Group, 1996, p. 485  (ISBN\u00a0 9780313279188 )  \u2191 BnF [first]  \u2191 (in)  Tongue [PKB] in the linguistic database Ethnologist .  \u2191 “Tribal violence in Kenya are 39 dead” , The world With AFP and Reuters, December 21, 2012; “The tribal attack in a village in southeast Kenya left 45 dead” , Romandie, December 22, 2012  \u2191 (in) Martin Pilly, Orma-Pokomo Conflict in Tana River.
