TonySpike:

One thing I know is that Yoruba language (and its dialects) is certainly older than the Oduduwa dynasty by at least 500 years. The right puzzle at this time would be placing Oduduwa at a certain timeline. Where does he fit: pre-1 AD, between 1 AD and 1000 AD or beyond 1000 AD? This is the subject for scholars now...

This is a fact but who has access to linguistic documents or at least historical records of Yoruba towns (excluding Ife) that have bern in existence way before Oduduwa.
