Thank you anonymous for bringing this.

Please all, give this a balance. . . .dnt focus too much on the appearance and stylish image of the connection but talk also to the significance of the goddesses and the rituals of offerings and acts showcased in these videos. We talked so much of the visualization of the Ife heads and their artistic beauty that we did not gain value in the secrets the heads were sharing with us.

Thanks, I feel this is a interesting topic and should be talked about because the threads topic is one of the reasons Yoruba culture has a strong influence outside Nigeria, especially in the diasporia like Brazil.
