Karo[2] (also Cherre, Kere, Kerre, Kara) is a South Omotic[3] language spoken in the Debub (South) Omo Zone of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People's Region in Ethiopia. Karo is described as being closely related to its neighbor, Hamer-Banna, with a lexical similarity of 81%,[1] and is considered a dialect of Hamer by Blench (2006),[4] but as a separate language belonging to the Hamer-Karo subfamily in Glottolog. The Karo people, who live close to the lower Omo River, use colorful bodywork, complex headdresses and body scars to express beauty and importance within the community. 2,400 speakers[citation needed] are using the Karo language.
