When the group of Roman Soldiers who were sent by Emperor Neo arrived in Sudd Swamp, they encountered a Nilotic Speakers tribe.

As indicated by the archaeologist Roland Oliver, Nilotic archaeological evidence around Sudd Swamp have been there since 3000 BCE and with the breakdown of Nilotic historical migrations timeline to Upper Nile Region;

Shilluks/Collo came to Upper Nile in 1450 as they migrated from Bhar El ghazel, where Nyikang, Gilo, and Dimo broke up over some dispute

Nyikang are current descendants of Collo in Fashodo, Gilo are the contemporary family of Anyuak found now in Pashalla while Dimo are the roots descendants of Jurcol currently found in Wau and Awiel.

Nuer migrated to Upper Nile in 1800 Century, where they also expanded out to the Eastern bank of Upper Nile while led by a predominant spiritual leader Popularly known as Latjor in Naath/Nuer History. Naath/Nuer were the last Nilotic group Settled by the Jieng group of Ngok Lual Yak within their present areas in Upper Nile. Jieng Moreover, have been living around Sudd Swamp for years which dated back to 12 Century as Iron Age period and 13 Century or more as noted by Archaeologist Roland Oliver that Nilotic have been present in Sudd Swamp Marshes for 3000 BCE.

So, with an above Historical facts break down of Nilotic migrations times line to Upper Nile Region, unlike Shilluks/Collo and Naath/Nuer, Jieng/ Dinka are the main original indigenous Sole owners of Upper Nile Region as indicated by historical facts migrations timeline on how Shilluk and Nuer recently came to Upper Nile compare to their Jieng/ Dinka Counterpart who have been in the area for 50 to 100 Years or even 500 Years earlier before them.

In 1300 to 1400, the current Jieng groups who are now mainly found in Bahr El ghazel Region began to expand out from Sudd Swamp Marshes land into their current respective dominant locations, exceeding far South wards towards common places like Shambe, Rumbek, Wau, Awiel and Kuacjok.

Yet the other Jieng dominant group, currently known as Ngok Lual Yak, remained in Sudd Swamp Marshes land until 1600.

The first expansion genesis of Jieng groups who are currently found in Bhar El ghazel was one of the mass exoduses to look for a Green Pasture land as well as to find a good liveable dry land since Sudd Swamp was mainly an island with no sufficient Green Pasture and have no a lot of dry land which can sustain the Population of Jieng due to the increase number of people that was growing around Sudd Swamp Marshes.

61 AD Roman Empire Soldiers Visit to Sudd Swamp in Upper Nile.

In 61 AD, a Roman Emperor, known as Emperor Nero, ordered a group of Roman soldiers to go deep down Southwards through White Nile for the Expeditions of the Central African Coast.

The group passed through White Nile but was unable to go far beyond Sudd Swamp, which limited the group of Roman soldiers to pe*****te through Sudd Swamp in search of the source of the White Nile.

So, the Expeditions search for the sources of the Nile become especially hard and at last the group of Roman Soldiers turn to an overland travel expedition from the Central African Coast, to avoid travelling through Sudd Swamp (Piou) that was not letting them get through beyond it.

Jieng Domination of Upper Nile from Sudd Swamp to Earlier Migrations Expansion to
Bhar El ghazel

From Sudan Swamp to the Confluence of Eastern Bank of River Nile and Sobat River, Jieng have been an Indigenous Sole land owner of the Upper Nile Region by earlier settlement until their migration expansion
from Sudd Swamp or Piou as Locally known to Bhar El ghazel Region in 1300 Century and 1400 Century.

The Expansion of Jieng Migrating out from Sudd Marshes into the rest of the areas within South Sudan and far beyond, Sudan was noticed to be at the beginning of the early 12th century, 13th century and 14th century.

Historical domination of Jieng within Upper Nile around Sudd Swamp (Piou as known by Jieng) has been a long noticeable trace
of kinship descendants from time to time.

Sudd Swamp Era, or Piou as Locally known by Jieng Sudd Swamp or Piou, as commonly known in Jieng language, was one of the locations that came under Jieng dominated as their original homeland after their earlier migration up from Northern Sudan (Deeng) from Contemporary Egypt (Kook).

The present of Jieng Settlement in Sudd Swamp Marshland is believed to be dating back to 3000 BCE as archaeological evidence cited by Archaeologist Roland Oliver shows that a transhumant Cultural base of rearing cattle have been seen around Sudd Swamp for years.

Archaeologist Roland Oliver notes that the period of an Iron Age indicates the presence of Jieng Nilotic around Sudd Swamp. And some of the examples of archaeological physical evidence are things like dome-shaped houses, Luaks, and tukuls
built by Jieng Nilotic as for their livelihood
around Sudd Swamp.

Anatomy of a Conflict

(If u can't read it all with understanding please reserve your comment, it's not needed)

Abyei has since 1905 politically and administratively straddled the North and South of Sudan. Physical control of the area offers very little tactical advantages to either side in fact its historical and political significance far outweigh the region’s economic or strategic value. Abyei’s only permanent residents and primary inhabitants are the Ngok section of South Sudan’s largest ethnic group, the Dinka. The region also plays host to Arabic speaking nomads from the Humr section of the Misseriya of Kordofan. The latter herd their cattle into Abyei en route to pastures and water sources some 75 km south of the disputed territory during the December to April dry season. The timing, route and other technical issues related to this migration were in the past regulated by the chiefs of the nine Ngok clans and the Nazirs or paramount rulers of the two sections of the Misseriya, the Humr and the Zuruk. Relations between the Ngok and Humr have varied over time, with the Ngok suffering from Humr slave raids and Humr cattle subjected to rustling by the nine Ngok clans.

In 1905 the British began cementing the process of creating a cordon sanitaire between the north and the south. The process was designed to insulate the latter from the “culturally corrupting” influence of Arab culture and Islamic faith, illustrating British colonial fixation with discrete cultural groups and containing the spread of Islam, particularly in Western Bahr Al Ghazal. Thus, in 1905 British colonial administrators transferred the Abyei region to Northern Sudan’s then Kordofan province. At the time it was argued that this arrangement was administratively more convenient than controlling the area from the southern province of Bahr el Ghazal, as it was cut off from the provincial capital for long periods during the rainy season. The rationale was also to place the Humr and Ngok under the same provincial authority and jurisdiction to deal with cattle and slave raiding.3 The transfer took place without consulting the predominantly Dinka Ngok population of Abyei. The actual size of the territory transferred is at the root of today’s crisis, as British colonial dispatches refer to Abeyi, or the area of the nine Ngok chiefdoms, but never specified its actual boundaries.

Several border shifts and territorial transfers similar to the one involving Abyei took place between the north and south and sowed the seeds of many border disputes currently hindering cordial relations between the two Sudans. This process of boundary changes reached a climax in 1922 when colonial officials forcibly evicted the entire population of the Kafia Kinga enclave in an attempt to create a “a tangible division between ‘Arab’ and ‘African’ groups along the border zone between Darfur and Bahr Al Ghazal”.4 The region, which had previously been a melting pot of cultures, became an impenetrable barrier. In 1958 the military regime of General Ibrahim Abboud annexed the Kafia Kingi enclave to Darfur.

A similar transfer occurred in 1924 when the Munroe-Wheatley agreement changed the border between the Rizegat of Darfur and the Malwal Dinka of Bahr al Ghazal. The border between the two communities and the provinces they inhabited previous lay at the banks of the river Kiir known in the north as the Bahr al Arab. However, the agreement shifted the boundary 14 miles, or 22 km south, of the river. The agreement was designed to allow the Rizegat, who the British were attempting to woo as allies, greater access to the rich grazing lands just south of the river and reduce conflict between them and the Malwal Dinka who inhabited the area. This border shift was implemented without the authorization of the Governor General in Khartoum and without consulting the Dinka at the time. As a result the agreement is currently contested by the GoSS, while Khartoum argues that since it took place before 1956 the border is not subject to alteration.

When seen in this light, the transfer of Abyei was one of several boundary adjustments by British colonial officials which have left a lasting impact on relations between the two Sudans. While much of the media and policy focus has been on the relations between the Ngok and Humr, the problem and solutions to the current conundrum lie at a higher level, namely Juba and Khartoum.
