TV/MoviesRe: Best Movie Quotes by Gamine(f): 5:33pm On Sep 10, 2009
Ken: Coming up?
Ray: What's up there?
Ken: The view.
Ray: The view of what? The view of down here? I can see that down here.
Ken: Ray, you are about the worst tourist in the whole world.
Ray: Ken, I grew up in Dublin. I love Dublin. If I grew up on a farm, and was retarded, Bruges might impress me but I didn't, so it doesn't.  - In Bruges

CultureRe: Uneme: My Tribe, IS NOT Going Extinct ANYMORE! by Gamine(op): 12:36pm On Jun 05, 2009
There is a group on Facebook, Uneme Universalis, if you are Uneme, join!
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2033719&id=503822081&comments#/group.php?gid=55243569750&ref=mf


A little Historical Note


“Owing to their profession-Blacksmith, they (Uneme) were highly respected and regarded by their customers. While they (Uneme neighbours) waged war between themselves freely none of them dare wage war against Uneme. In fact, Uneme were always contacted for war weapons.
If an Uneme agrees to marry any of these peoples’ daughter, she is always given out without dowry; because that will enable her family to enjoy the generosity of Uneme in offering them farming tools to farm. However, no non-Uneme dare go to any Uneme daughter for marriage. Uneme girls were very beautiful, but secluded for Uneme men alone.

It was this respect and lack of opportunity to war freely with Uneme or to marry their daughters at will that degenerated into great fear by these Uneme neighbours. They were so afraid of Uneme that it eventually turned into the younger generations saying: we forbid Uneme.

Hereby turning into the whole "osu" of a thing. . .the things that fear'd do to a people sad


a curse was placed on the Uneme by His Royal Highness Oba Egbeka of Benin during his reign (around 1370AD). His Royal Highness Oba Egbeka got tired of constant war between the Uneme tribal houses and Benin Kingdom.

The Bishop stated that the charm for placing the curse was prepared for His Royal Highness Oba Egbeka by His Royal Highness Oba Ogiebo of Igbo-Orumila now known as Ijebu-Ode.
His Royal Highness Oba Egbeka used the charm to scatter the Uneme tribal houses and prevent them from further united action against him. The Oba’s warriors chased the Uneme from one location to another in Edo area until His Royal Highness felt he had defeated them completely.

This partly accounts for the dispersal of Uneme tribal houses in the northern part of Edo State, some parts of Ondo state and a small section of Awka in Anambra State. The five Uneme tribal houses make up ten towns and villages in Edo State. These are Uneme-Anegbette, Uneme-Nekhua, Uneme-Akiosu, Uneme-Ekpedo, Uneme-Erunun, Uneme-Akpama, Uneme-Udochi, Uneme-Uzanu, Uneme-Imiava, Uneme-Ayetoro


@jantavanta

Im still researching on a lot of things.

Im going to meet up with a woman who's descendants wrote a great deal about the Uneme.

still trying to get resources for the blog/website

As soon as i get any more info, i would post it and link back here, if you are Uneme join the group smiley
