Abstract: This paper examines the history of Buha pre-colonial social formation up to 1890. The main objective of this paper is to trace the history of Buha prior to its colonization. It focuses on social formation from pre-colonial period up 1890. This paper applied the theory of historical materialism which centers on the material production as the major force behind the development of any society in human history. Qualitative research methodology was used to gather the data needed from the primary sources. Oral interview was conducted with selected knowledgeable informants to complements other information from the primary sources. Data from secondary sources was gathered through review of books, isolated articles, articles in journals, as well as from published and unpublished documents including archival sources. The main argument in this paper is that before colonial period the people of Buha had reached higher level of social formation in terms of their political, social and economic developments. It was the intrusion of foreign immigrants from other societies and principally from parts of eastern Africa such as Tutsi that brought about some changes in the social set up of Buha.
