Igbo civilisation dates back to 3000 BCE — New archaeological finding

A new archaeological discovery has revealed that Igbo civilisation began as far back as 3000 BCE.


This was disclosed by Engr. Obi Barth Oyibo Thompson, a member of Igbo Leaders of Thought, during the launch of his book titled “Centuries of Igbo Civilisation: Origin, Cosmology, and Epistemology of the Igbo People.”


The event, which also marked his 80th birthday celebration, took place at Olokoro in Umuahia South Local Government Area of Abia State over the weekend.

Thompson stated that long before the arrival of colonial powers in Nigeria, Igbo civilisation had already emerged in Southeastern Nigeria by 3000 BCE.

“Evidence derived from archaeology—specifically iron artifacts—shows that by 2000–1500 BCE, even before the Sumerians, the Igbo people had developed iron-working skills,” he said.


He urged the Igbo community to sustain their ingenuity in science and technology, which has historically set them apart.

The octogenarian emphasized the need for Ndigbo to appreciate their rich history and narrate their own stories, rather than relying on colonial perspectives that often distorted African civilizations in favor of Western narratives.

He called on the Igbo people to be proud of their culture and history and to disregard distorted narratives that undermine their heritage.

Thompson also stressed the importance of preserving the Igbo language and culture, which he said are under threat from Western influences.

“Colonialism destroyed every facet of life and identity of the Aboriginal Igbo,” he remarked.


Thompson announced that his book would be distributed free of charge to students across Igbo land, to ensure that the authentic history of the Igbo people, supported by anthropological and archaeological evidence, is made accessible to every Igbo person.

“The greatest profit I want to make from this book is for a child to read it and gain knowledge from it. I want our people to understand Igbo history and culture,” he said.

He further lamented the erosion of Igbo language, culture, and history due to Western civilization and called for a cultural awakening among the people.

Thompson also expressed concern over the hate and mutual suspicion that had been introduced among Nigeria’s various ethnic nationalities, which, according to him, coexisted peacefully before colonial interference.

The ceremony was well-attended by friends, family, and

APC

Are you surprised, don't you know is in power

They would have been most backward and uncivilised region

kettykin:
this zone would have been something else if Lagos was never the capital of Nigeria and if Nigeria never existed,

How is he ingrained and bitter, what he highlighted is not true?
Is it that you and your likes hate hearing true?

If you have ever built house in Lagos before you will understand his point

helinues:
You are ingrained with bitterness. Not for a day you have ever displayed any form of joy on this forum. Always hating on the progress of Lagos state

He would still write the rubbish and still add smiling emojis when the whole bunkum is just so dry

So Brew to create employment for the youth a and generate revenue to tge state government is not tangible thing? I will where APC supporters reason from ?

Obiedun:
Honestly, obi has nothing good to offer anyone. No tangible achievement to point to as a governor. He is now constituting nuisance

You don't know this people, all his wrong doing will be attributed to other people, while others achievement will be attributed to him even when he leaves office.

that is how he built Lagos without making any significant contributions to the development of the state

PresidObi:
Are they counting this as an achievement?

I thought it should be attributed to states financial efficiency and not Federal government efforts? A wasteful governor must be wasteful.

Federal government should do their own savings and not claim the achievements of states as their own. Show us how much the Federal government saved.

YorubaMuslim. Playing there games as usual

ShinjaWWest:
Hahhahaha....


When Ur southeast brothers were busy Insulting every tribe in Southsouth you didn't caution Ur brothers now you want Southsouth to stand and support you guys... Never!!!

Igbos insulted Akwaibom people bcus they hated akpabio...

Igbos insulted edo people who voted massively for obi...

Igbos even insulted Yoruba's that voted for obi...

We r now wise..Igbos don't wish well for other tribes.

I voted for obi in 2023..But will never do that again..

God bless the good people of Southsouth and southwest

If Tinubu wins the second term the senate will amend the constitution to remove the tenure limit for President

What about Tinubu that Yorubalize the nation should we now agree that is Yoruba agenda?

helinues:
Let's discuss

Hope this is not Yorubalization about to happen again

Is this the actual Yoruba agenda?

Rubber always bounced back

Tinubu boys at work to justify the manipulation that is going to happen in the fort coming census exercise,which the committee is comprises mostly Yoruba indigenes.

They are not supporters but paid propagandIsts working for their pay

pafestula:
Na harmless question him ask, himself and his brainwashed supporters can give Atiku a reply to that question. Thanks

The committee lack federal character as it made up of mostly Yoruba people. This made it bias and can not give accurate data.

Is your alla so powerless that you have to fight for him?

goodnessme1:
Imagine what a yoruba muslim is talking.

This why you people are against sharia law in south west because it will stop many evil happening in Yoruba land.



Anyway we Northerners must liberate south west by imposing sharia law there,it have already started in Oyo state.

That exactly what they are.

Is it still Democracy? What is APC turning Nigeria to?

Tinubu boys spotted

Koralords:
His. Only looking for relevance

This is obviously one of the tribal bigot from the west

Aonkuuse:
So why are you people killing innocent people instead of the real Fulanis

Yoruba propaganda sited

Tjra:

What a detribalized man!

Yoruba urchins keep deceiving themselves

TimeManager:
Your hate won't stop Tinubu, he's the President of the federation. He keeps spreading love and development.



-Kiss the truth!

This is a case of mad people calling sane people mad, you just confirmed who you are.

etrouble:
Your your forefathers be the slaves

Yorubas should stop bring slave mentality to federal level. So President and Governors are above the law( procurement act) ?

kedeojo:
Is not every project they bid for cos president and governors can choose the contractors they like to use, expecially a very important and complex projects. Stop the hate and bitterness cos we are in the season of lent.
