Ibo primitive cannibals, part 6.

This dumbo is still comparing EATING HUMAN FLESH(CANNIBALISM) with rituals; how dumb are eboes for phuck sake?

The spirits of those they ate for lunch must be haunting the whole tribe.

Ibo primitive cannibals, part 5.

Dancing with human heads.

When is Nigeria going to divide?

I sure can't live around cannibals who feed on human flesh.

Negro_Ntns:

and they take pride in it.....gorilla like basking in ignorance. exhibiting their barbarism and cannibalism in 2012 the way oyinbo saw and described them in 1800.

That's vintage ibos for you, sir. It's part of their culture

Ibos of Nigeria

In the early part of the 20th century, G.T. Basden, a European anthropologist, noted in his book titled “Among the Ibos of Nigeria” that the reaction of the people to meat scarcity in their homeland manifested as widespread cannibalism in which both men and women fully and freely partook. The only restraint was the common agreement not to eat members of one’s own community. [size=14pt]Human flesh was seen as a very important component of their diet, very nutritious, and necessary for the cannibals to develop sexy and muscular physiques and a strong mentality of bravery[/size]. Unlike some other African communities like the Fang that ate prisoners of war (POWs) to insult their enemies, the Igbo people saw human flesh as the choicest meat though they usually boasted to their enemies that “beware, lest we eat you.”

^Big ups to Amor4ce.

Human sacrifice and cannibalism are two different things.

Ibos eat human flesh and it's your best delicacy, end of story.

It can still happen, when you cowards try them again. Those knives are still around.

Primitive ibo cannibals again with human heads.

PhysicsQED:

No, I don't think they did.

Keep trying to big up your ego, you just said you did.

van bonattel:

Warriors with the heads of yoruba cowards

I guess communal cannibalistic feasts still happen in alaigbo.

Primitive cannibals.

Did everyone see this picture? Ibos of Nigeria, primitive cannibals.

Notice blood on the skulls and the big knives.

Watch out for ibos before they feed on ya bones and meat, primitive cannibals.

[size=14pt]Ibos of Nigeria
Strangers were caught, or slaves purchased, with the deliberate intention of converting them into food. Human flesh was a marketable commodity, and a common article of diet.[/size]

Abagworo:
Igbos have modernized and stopped it but your people just like Ibadan, Ogbomosho, Ilesha, Ife etc are still stuck in 1800

More like you don't have a culture and you had to attach yourselves to the culture of those who saved your primitive butts from the ibotic forests in the east.

PhysicsQED:

Well, there is no pre-colonial or colonial era written or traditional evidence that suggests they did, but modern historians would like to assume that Benin did get some cloth from Ijebu, since both Benin and Ijebu were major centers of cloth production for export (among other places in West Africa) at one time. I don't think it's an unreasonable assumption since cloth from Ijebu was sold to other places as well, so I'm going along with their claim, but if you must know, there doesn't seem to be any evidence that the cloth Benin was selling (not to talk of wearing) were actually obtained specifically from Ijebu.

Be precise, I don't have time for verbosity. Simple yes, or no.

Comparing Kingship ritual rites done on a DEAD king to this:

^Not surprised; ibos have always been the dumbest tribe in Nigeria. What do you expect from the perennial political pros.titutes? Primitive gorillas!

In summary:

1) I showed ibos have always been primitive.
2) I proved ibos have always been cannibals and communal cannibalistic feasts is part of ibotic culture.
3) Ibos never built an empire and they would have ended up like the amazon tribe of Brazil if not for colonialism.
4) I also proved that ibos naturally have long arms synonymous with gorillas.
5) Lastly, ibos were still butt naked in the early parts of the 20th century.


History of Ibos!

I gave you two quotes about what the missionaries wrote about ibos and yorubas, compare and contrast, and stop arguing like a phucking table.

Yorubas of Nigeria by missionaries.

Compare and contrast!

Once settled, Yoruban tribes people organized themselves into smaller groupings, some being the Egba, the Ijesha, the Awori, the Ondos, the Ijebus and the Egbados. In Yorubaland, the region of Oyo became most dominant, and its people, the leaders of the Yoruba. However, in the 1820s, the influence of Oyo was greatly weakened as Yorubaland was destabilized by tribal warfare. After these years, the Yoruba would never gain back the previous degree of native unity which they experienced under Oyo rule. The only central government that would come to exert control over the entire region was the colonial British government, established in Lagos in 1861.

S. G. Pinnock, who first came to Africa in 1888, tells us much about early Yoruban culture. The tribes were governed by a hierarchy of chiefs, secondary chiefs and elders. Tribal families held property for which they did not pay rent or taxes. Pinnock says that the first thing that a stranger to the Yoruba notices is their many different forms of salutations. Sitting, feasting, working, mourning, riding and walking all require particular ways of greeting. Although the Yoruba did not have a written language, missionaries found that Yorubas did communicate with symbols. Tangible objects like shells, stones, coal, feathers, corn, sticks, pepper and powder were used to convey ideas, wishes and feelings. For example, a single shell displayed or given away may communicate “defiance and failure.” If a Yoruban wished to affirm relationships between himself and a brother or sister he may deliver to them two shells strung together, face to face. Similarly, two shells strung, back to back, represented “separation and enmity.” If the Yoruban wished to have an immediate and friendly meeting with someone, he would tie a small feather between two facing shells. Yoruba children would commonly undergo face markings. This involved a series of parallel cuts being made on their cheeks, followed by the removal of narrow strips of skin between the incisions, and the application of medicine. Once the scars healed there was a permanent marking on the face. As many as ten to forty marks could be made on one child. The Yoruba were very religious and frequently could be heard calling out the name of their god and the names of their idols. Pinnock says, “Religion with the Yoruba people is an obsession.” He says, further, that it is easier to number the objects of their worship rather than the theology of their beliefs. He says that they had four hundred and one idols, some of them constituting deified human beings, some gods over the natural elements, some being domestic, agricultural or craft gods, others being animals, others objects in nature and, lastly, some being malignant spirits. Separate from this, they also believed in one supreme god, who was the creator, giver of life and the judge of all men.

Within Yoruban society you could find not only culture and religion, but also kind-hearted, faithful and self-sacrificing individuals. Pinnock tells how one day he came across a young man calling for help. The man was dressed in rags and it was apparent that he had leprosy. He was attended to by Pinnock and others with him, cleaned up and given fresh clothes, some money and medicinal ointment. He returned to the missionaries once a week for on-going assistance. Then, for a week or two, he did not show up, and upon enquiry, Pinnock discovered that the man was too ill to leave his home. Pinnock visited the home to find it part of a large compound which had been vacated by the man’s relatives. Most of the compound was in ruins and the only pleasant sight was a palm tree in the man’s room. All of a sudden, Pinnock realized that there was someone else standing at the entrance to the man’s room. Upon enquiry, he learned that it was the man’s mother. She would not leave her son. She swept his room and brought him food, water and firewood. She thanked Pinnock for whatever assistance he offered the man, and Pinnock felt that she deserved thanks for being “the ministering angel in human form.”

Can this bytch read?

This is the book again: Eboes, ibos of Nigeria.

kindabigg: Among The Ibos Of Nigeria, GT Basden, London, Seeley, Service & Co, 1921

…The appearance of a crowd of carriers, with their spare frames, spindle-legs and cucumber
calves, often prompts the thought that the men must have recently experienced a period of famine. On the western side this is not the case. There the people are [size=18pt]shorter[/size] and are of a stocky, thick-set build. They are disposed to be [size=18pt]lazy[/size] yet they are passionate, and of a rash and fiery temperament, the result probably of an over-abundant supply of rich food……[size=18pt]The shape of the skull repeats itself with astonishing regularity[/size], this pecularity, perhaps, being accounted for by the process of moulding the shape of the head during infancy……Every town, and, incidentally, every family or household, stands by itself. There is no combination between town and town. Although speaking the same language, and in times of peace intermarrying with one another, the nearest neighbours are still regarded as strangers, e.g., the people of Onitsha and those of Opusi do not reckon themselves as of one tribe, though a distance of less than five miles separates the two towns.

pg 31-32

…Of sanitary ideas there is none, nor is there any sense of modesty as the European understands the term. As regards sanitation, however, it must be remembered that the sun is a powerful purifying agent, otherwise the conditions would, in many places, be unendurable.

Pg 33-34

Nor were these fears groundless. [size=18pt]Cannibalism, human sacrifices and other savage customs were real facts,[/size]and flourished within five miles of the outskirts of Onitsha, and no one would dare swear that the inhabitants of even that town were all entirely innocent !

pg 37
…It was in close proximity to this place that, as was well known, a cannibal feast had lately been held. Amongst our lads there was a small boy whose father had been a servant to the Niger Company. Whilst carrying a message to Obushi, the father was murdered and his body disposed of according to time-honoured custom.
On one occasion I was resting outside my hut when a man of unprepossessing appearance came along and entered into conversation. His eldest son, then a small lad, had been placed by his father in the care of a mis-sionary, in order that he might receive instruction. In the course of his remarks he solemnly asserted that it would be of great benefit to his son if he were provided with human flesh sometimes as part of his diet. He maintained that, if this were done, a proper man's spirit would develop in the lad. Towards the south, cannibal tendencies assumed a worse aspect. All that has been said hitherto relates to the prevalent custom of feasting upon captives taken in war. In the southern districts a regular traffic in human flesh was carried on. [size=18pt]Strangers were caught, or slaves purchased, with the deliberate intention of converting them into food. Human flesh was a marketable commodity, and a common article of diet.[/size] It is not long since a certain chief managed to get possession of one of his opponents against whom he had a grudge of long standing. He derived satisfaction from first lopping off the captive's ears and nose, and then flaying him alive.
The carcase was eaten and the skin converted into a drumhead. There is not a shadow of doubt that, could the history of the Ibo country be clearly traced, a host of suchlike stories would have to be recorded. I have become acquainted with many erstwhile cannibals, and quite goodnatured folk most of them are. One week-end I was staying at a town a few miles S.E. of Onitsha. My quarters were very circumscribed, the only accommodation available being a tiny thatched lean-to shed against the compound wall, usually occupied by the goats and fowls. My boys and carriers shared the limited accomodation, lying at night alongside the camp-bed. After the evening meal, we settled down for the night, long before our customary bedtime; consequently the men chattered freely. Presently I became interested in the conversation, and amongst other items of news, gathered that they had all had a share in cannibal feasts.
pg 38-40

…With the exception of those actually situated on the banks of streams, it is usual to find the villages at a distance from water ; indeed very often there is no adequate supply, the people simply dig catch-pits for the storage of surface water. In the wet season there is no lack, but in the dry months water is scarce and that stored in the pits becomes stagnant. In some districts the traveller must carry water, for he is likely to experience difficulty in obtaining any en route fit for consumption, and a bath is but an occasional luxury. Whilst travelling through such a district some years ago for three days we were denied the comfort of even a decent wash. For drinking purposes recourse can generally be had to cocoanut milk or palm wine. The former is preferable, as the natives dilute the palm wine very freely, and they are not particular whence the water for the purpose is drawn!...

pg 49

…In the choice of meat the Ibo exhibits no fads. Usually he must be content with smoked fish. Domestic animals are scarce, and are seldom killed except for sacrificial purposes or for very special feasts. When any are killed, the carcases are hacked to pieces with axes and matchets, straight through skin and bones. Not the smallest particle is wasted, even the entrails being consumed. The blood is caught and allowed to solidify. It is then cut in pieces and cooked in the same manner as the liver. Wild animals are treated likewise, of whatever species they may be, large or small, young or old, diseased or otherwise. The only part shunned is the gall-bladder, the contents of which are believed to be deadly poison, that of some animals being much more feared than others. Leopards, monkeys, dogs, snakes, lizards, anything indeed that can be called fish, flesh or fowl is acceptable to the Ibo.

This cannibalistic gorilla is posting Northern tribal marks as Yoruba.

They probably escaped from the claws of your cannibalistic ancestors, hence why their faces are scared for life.

This bytch is still asking dumb questions. I posted a book which alluded to your cannibalistic way of life, do the same for the other tribes and we'll take it from there. Only ibos were cannibals according to history books, enough said.

Oyo empire is all over history books about pre-colonial African civilizations and empires, where's the ibo empire?

PhysicsQED:

Some of the clothing that they exported to other parts of Africa or to Europeans originated from Ijebu areas, but some was also from the hinterland (the interior), not the areas nearer to the coast like the Ijebu area, and some of it was from the Benin kingdom itself.

Different people wore different kinds of clothing in Benin depending on their station and there are numerous written references to weaving going on in Benin itself. As for the Benin people, if the pre-colonial written descriptions and the surviving photographs are to be relied upon, it seems that they had their own varied dress styles and weaving, regardless of whether they were reselling cloth that they had obtained from the interior or the coast.

But did the Benin's buy clothes from the Ijebu's? That's the question, answer that and stop posting epistles. Dammit!

You know they lost when they start changing the title of the thread.

God bless Yoruba people!







Peace out!
