THE CONCEALED NIGERIA : Tribal Marks In Yoruba Land by naijahoot: 5:35pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Tribal marks are specific traditional marks called Ila in Yoruba language, they have been around for about 200years when they became the vogue. They were used primarily for beautifying the face and body, there is this saying “tita riro lan’ko ila, toba jina tan adi oge” (Translated as the process of having a tribal mark is arduous but when it heals, it becomes fashion).....
