Every original kingdom has to do its own local coronation stuff within its domain and at the end of it, the king finds his way to Ife to be inducted in the 'Hall of Kings'. grin

Their coronation is a re-enactment of Oranmiyan's journey into Bini & his contact with the Ogiso/the people who owned the land. It is more of visitations to historic spots Oranmiyan & certain early Oba visited as well as contact/interactions with certain original Bini owners prior to Oranmiyan.

After they had done this, the king has to come to Ife and we dey wait. cheesy grin
who told you this story?

There is no need lying and decieving people. We are actually from Benin kindom. Oduduwa/izoduwa our patriach fled from Benin and ended up in Ile ife. Ibos founded Ile ife but left when oduduwa came.

Most of our cultures are inherited from benin eg Oba title. There was no Oba here in yorubaland before 1940. We only had eleko in lagos, alaafin in oyo, ooni in ife, ajuwale of ijebu(who came from sudan) etc

people who dont know our history should stop revising it because we have a very recent history unlike benin.

[s]See balderdash.

Your revisionist Bini history makes no sense. You claim Oduduwa was a corruption of Izoduduwa without knowing Oduduwa is the name of the creation deity given to the Olofin for creating a new age in Ife. The same way you call Oranmiyan (another nickname) Omonayan (with an entirely different meaning). You need to read, there's a reason every Ooni goes up to Oke-Ora (which is east of Ife by the way) before coronation and descends from the hill after coronation.

There 2 classes of people in Ife, the valley settlers and the hill settlers. The valley settlers had access to fertile grounds for farming which the hill settlers wanted to have a share of and a war broke out. The skirmish long predates Olofin it just came to a head during his time.

The Bini false history did not start until the reign of the last king.

Go read works of Europeans whom Bini were the first to have contact with and see how your Oba spoke highly of Ooni (Oghene), Ile-Ife and what role the Ooni play during the coronation of every new Oba Bini.

Stop with your lies and go read books. Even Egharevba, the foremost Bini historian did not touch such frivolous claims which he knows would thwart his professional progress[/s].

RUBBISH!!!

The Benin dynasty owes its existence to ile-ife.

Sorry to burst your bubble , your first oba of Benin is oduduwa's grandson,
After much begging by Benin chiefs for ile-ife to save their kingdom , oduduwa
took pity on them and sent his last born oranmiyan who left benin to his grandson
Eweka after concluding that Benin does not worth his status.
Please ask your elders before you reply.

Oduduwa was not the name of the king. You may want to look for Izoduwa elsewhere.

Oduduwa is the name of Yoruba deity of creation. A nickname given to the king for starting a new socio-political phase in Ife. Oduduwa as a name has been in existence since the beginning of early Ife settlement and not a corruption of Izoduwa.

It is a matter of time before you lot start claiming Omononyan was Oranmiyan's actual name that we corrupted when infact it was a nickname because of his violent character but you people have quickly found an equivalent of the name for him in Bini grin cheesy

Very fraudulent history, Bini history.

quote author=Ooni post=50002987]so you want me to believe that our patriach was a sky diver?[/quote]

That is why you are educated , you are supposed to be able separate myths from history.
Oduduwa is not the first kng in ile-ife, ife existed thousands of years before oduduwa,
Have you heard the term , "the son of David" when referring to Israelite ?
Does that mean that David is the first patriarch of Israel ?
Of course not there were Abraham, Isaac and jcob before him.

Oduduwa represents an epoch not a founder.

And finally Oduduwa didn't fall from the sky, that is a myth perpetuated by ignorant
folks just because he happens to have lived in the hilly part of ile-ife.

I have read the two versions (Yorubas and Benin) of the history.

It is very likely that the Yoruba Oduduwa was the banished prince from Benin Kingdom. Very likely I say.

No you haven't , even though it is a painful thing to admit, no knowledgeable Benin oba or person will deny that eweka the first oba who civilized the Benin kingdom is a Yoruba man.
Instead of you guys to face the truth, you invented the "oduduwa is a Benin prince" myth.

There is nothing shameful in admiring the truth, your kingdom won't be the first to be
ruled by a foreigner, till this day the descendants of oduduwa are still the one ruling the

I think your sources are the Yoruba myth not history and
some elements of Benin revisionist history.
Oduduwa was never a stranger to ile-ife even though
he was not part of the ruling house, the rumour
of him being a stranger came from those
who lost out in the power struggle of his time.
There were kings before oduduwa!

Or u mean the other way round?
Are we the ones refusing to admit or it's u guys that don't want to admit that a prince from Benin who came down to Ile-Ife was made an Oba and till today the Ogiso descendant rule in Ile-Ife and who Yorubas pay homage to till this day?
