Gilgil - A suspected poacher - shot by the scion of Kenya's most-famous white pioneer family - was buried on Thursday, amid angry calls for settlers to be expelled from the former British colony.
Thomas Cholmondeley is the son of one of Kenya's largest landowners.
He was arrested for the shooting a week ago, a year after prosecutors controversially dropped charges against him for the murder of a wildlife ranger.
Cholmondeley is still in police custody, but no charges have been brought so far.
The shooting outraged many Kenyans, provoked protests in Nairobi and prompted vituperative newspaper editorials against white settlers.
At the funeral of Robert Njoya Mbugua, a sobbing and wailing crowd chanted: "Hang him, hang him. Kill the murderer."
Mbugua's hillside homestead overlooks a huge estate belonging to Cholmondeley, son of the fifth Baron Delamere.
Police said Cholmondeley had told them he was taking an evening walk on his Rift Valley farm, when he and a friend encountered five men carrying a dead impala.
Cholmondeley admitted shooting the ranger
When the men - armed with machetes, bows and arrows - were asked to stop, they set dogs on the two.
Police officers said Cholmondeley shot the dogs and one of the men.
Kenyan immigration minister Gideon Konchella, and four assistant ministers, attended the funeral.
Assistant minister for local government, Stephen Tarus, said: "It's time these white settlers who are killing our sons were kicked out of the country."
Another junior minister blamed tensions between wealthy landowners and poor squatters in the area on an unfair colonial distribution of land.
Assistant immigration minister Anania Mwaboza, said: "There won't be harmony between white settlers and the squatters until the land ownership issue is addressed once and for all."
Chief prosecutor fired
The Delameres have lived in Kenya for a century.
In the case a year ago, President Mwai Kibaki fired Kenya's chief prosecutor after murder charges against Cholmondeley were dropped.
Cholmondeley admitted shooting the ranger, saying he had believed him to be a robber, but he denied murder.
