HUDO Centre More information Broun tribe is one of the known indigenous tribes in Blue Nile State. It has thirteen Sub-tribes and Dar Shageya is one of them. All of them use the same language of Broun. According to community leaders, since early eighties (1980s), Dar Shageya has been known also by the name of Maban. This word Maban in Broun language means human, and it was given to Dar Shageya by the Christian missionary group around 1982 (in differentiating them from other Broun) as the mission had succeeded in convincing them about Christianity. The majority of Dar Shageya people are Christians. Maban/ Dar Shageya is a frontier/ border tribe divided between Sudan and South Sudan but there are many cultural differences between them as the Sudanese group culturally similar to other Blue Nile tribes; 1.
