Meaning

an Iraqw masculine name meaning the one who watches from the high place or lookout; the Iraqw people of the Mbulu Highlands traditionally built their homesteads on hillsides and ridgelines of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, where elevated positions provided both security and visibility across the agricultural landscape; men charged with watching for approaching threats or monitoring the movement of livestock across the highland plains were valued community figures, and names like Harko honour this protective function
