Need Help With The Significance Of A Certain Tribal Mark by Duckie(f): 6:11pm On Jul 16, 2009 |
My first post on Nairaland, I hope it goes well ![]() I am not Nigerian myself but a true friend of Nigeria in many ways. A young child, with whom I'm very close, has a tribal mark on the right chin. It's one single black, thin line that runs vertically down the centre of the chin seen from the front. The line is only 1-2 centimetres long. The mark was made with a razor and dyed with charcoal. Does anyone know the significance of this mark? I've been googleing for hours with poor success, |
