Bobbiee:A self-aggrandizing lie. Here's a photo of one Igbo practitioner from 1921, courtesy of G.T. Basden's "Among the Ibos of Nigeria". And here's another from the 20th century. See the source article at https://www.legit.ng/1175406-igbo-tribal-marks-meaning.html At the bottom is yet a third example from 1911, courtesy of this page. https://re-entanglements.net/ichi-scarification/ Note that all of these examples are far more prominent than any of the Yoruba "tiger marks" you and other trolls have been mocking. 1 Like
