It seems that Evans-Pritchard visited a Shilluk village briefly during one of his trips to the Nuer, probably the Doleib Hill missionary station on the Sobat River (roughly six miles from its confluence with the White Nile), established in 1902 by the American Presbytarian Mission and after 1925 run by Rev.
