Pari

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pari (also spelled Paeri) is an ethnic group in Sudan. They also call themselves Jo-Pari (people of Pari).

Pari live in Lafon County in Equatoria Province. Until February 1993 they lived in six villages at the foot of Lipul Hill (Jebel Lafon). When all the villages were burnt down during the Second Sudanese Civil War, the Pari were scattered and now live in various settlements. The 1982 census put the total population at approximately 11,000.[1]
