The Terik hold the southern edge of the Nandi plateau, in the country where the Kalenjin nation meets the Luhya of Kakamega.
Their community is small but old, and their tongue and their customs sit close to the Nandi, with whom they share long lines of marriage and trade.
The Terik have quietly preserved a border tradition that connects the Kalenjin nation to its western neighbours.
