samuk: Moreover, stop tagging me to someone else's contrary view. That I agreed with someone on some topic does not mean I will never have contrary opinions ever with them. No, we Yorubas are not like that. It is only in Benin that you're loyal to a view you disagree with, just to save-face Grow up and face me if you can. Stop making someone elses contrary views as your personal authority. Grow up!!! 6 Likes 3 Shares |

MetaPhysical: We are still looking for your east and this might interest you. The only thing that matters to us, the Benin, unlike the Yorubas, is the truth, irrespective to where it leads and no fabrication will be entertained. A Reconsideration of the Ife-Benin Relationship1 A. F. C. Ryder DOI: https://doi.org/10.1017/S0021853700005314 Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 January 2009 Extract The traditions now current among the Edo of Nigeria trace the origin of the Benin dynasty and the associated cire-perdue technique of brass-casting to Ife. Some of the information recorded by European visitors to Benin since the fifteenth century is not easily reconcilable with this tradition. Material evidence, especially that contained in the Benin bronzes, and the results of archaeological investigation have also raised difficulties. It is suggested that many conflicts in the evidence could be resolved by adopting a hypothesis which would ascribe a more northerly origin to the dynasty. The Nupe-Igala area straddling the confluence of the Niger and Benue emerges as the key area in such a reconstruction of Benin dynastic affiliations. The Yoruba States would seem to be related to the same general complex, but the chronology and direction of dynastic movements still remain obscure, and the seemingly fixed points of reference become far less certain when placed in context. 1 Like |

samuk: I have rearranged the above and itemized to give a direct relation in my responses. 1. The tradition is in Edo. Edo says the origin of their King is Ife. In addition, their brass civilization originated from Ife as well. 2. What European explorers reported when they visited Edo differs from what Edo practices. If you look at these two you should see the contradiction and not be comfortable sharing it here. You should have a problem with European visitors giving false report about your ancestors and dismissing their traditions. Do you not see it? Is it acceptable to you that Europeans pretty much said they know better than your ancestors on what their tradition should be? Thats a mindset of a conqueror. 3. European visitors examined your brass and dug up some artefacts. What they found did not agree with account and practices in Edo. Were your ancestors lying to the visitors....or were the visitors pre-occupied in connecting your artefacts to River Niger by fire by force? In that age Ryder wrote about, Europeans had a penchant for connecting seats of dynastic power with a body of water. In Europe dynasty and water were interlinked. Water was a common item in the origin story of civilizations. These visitors met a REFORMED Benin and when asked about their origin they claimed Ife, instead of Niger Benue. These people have lost their senses....don't worry we will rewrite their origin and place it in Niger-Benue. ![]() 4. The way they concocted a new history for you is by assuming that you came from somewhere else in complete disregard to the tradition of your ancestors. This is what they meant by "hypothesis". They reduced your custom to fantasies! They reconstructed the traditions of your ancestors....and you proudly shared this with me with gleeful joy and celebration. I dont know about you dude. ![]() 5. They are not sure about the Ypruba States but to them its origin should equally have a water myth to it. They were not so committed to that but did not want to reveal their ignorance and lack of professionalism in field study and so just left that open. Now, if you look at Acholonu's work, which I made available in this thread in my quest for the East, you will see why this thread was a deliberate mockery of your Benin superiority and deBarros error that your authority is obtained in East. TAO11 already revealed this to you. ![]() Do you not see a connection in the Niger-Benue origin of Idu as told by Acholonu....and the Niger-Benue reconstruction of Ryder many centuries before? Acholonu is retelling and re-living the hypothesis of European visitors that reconstructed your origin. This reconstruction is what continues till today to confuse you and make you denounce Ife, the custom and traditions your ancestors practiced. 3 Likes |

MetaPhysical: It's very important that you get one thing straight about the average Benin person when it comes to their history, it's only the truth that matters. History to us is not about tribal supremacy, if you view us from this angle, you will miss the point. We don't care where the truth lead us to, in as far as it's the truth. Some people just can't wake up one day and begin to write about Benin/Ife relationship when there are no evidence to back it up, no recorded history or oral history for over 500 years to back it up. If the Yorubas had said Oranmiyan was from Owo, Ekiti or Akure, it would have made more sense because we had both oral and documented history with those palaces. What we will not accept is to be lumped into some union with fabricated history. The European are not trying to rewrite our history, it's just that, there are no evidence to support Benin/Ife relationship. You know that the Orun Oba Ado is a fraud. The messagers represented by the Benin artwork the Yorubas claim was from Ife bears no resemblance to an Ife person but Nupe/Igala. 1 Like |

Samuk, Please focus on my last response and tell me why what Ryder said, and you shared here is of importance to Benin. Again, if you compare it with what Acholonu said, there is a match. Ryder's account is centuries ahead of Acholonu. She also referenced a publication called Great Benin Classics where this origin of Niger-Benue is again documented. This thread was a trap for you. TAO told you that much earlier. I dont like it when you say you dont want competition for supremacy. Yoruba will be sitting jeje, we no bother you. You Edos will start opening threads left and right trying to form king-kong. Then we you are cornered you start wishing we would be back off. We have in past backed off. Not this time. You have to commit never to raise anymore issue on Yoruba/Benin relationship. 2 Likes |

samuk: Shut up!! Ryder (1965) admitted that his own conclusion was probabilistic. And he anticipated attacks against it from scholars, noting that the most cogent of those attacks is the well established connection between Ife and Benin. Carry your revision and crawl back into your creepy hole in reverse mode. Moreover, scholars have in present time come to identify the Ogane of d'Aveiros account as no other than the Ooni of Ife.

I forgot to mention also. Since you keep harping Nupe/Igala. Igala attach itself as a proto-Yoruba language and culture. This is corfirmable and has been repeated many times by their Attah. Nupe is from Igala. So whichever you take your origin ...you are still inferior to Yoruba. 1 Like |

MetaPhysical: You are not getting it, we are not looking for who is superior. This is not supremacy contest for us. We are only in search of of the truth and there is no evidence or the evidence available to back up Benin/Ife relationship is very weak at this point in time. You are trying so had to destract by keep on saying you are superior. I don't really know how or when you became superior or was it when you were importing guns from Benin to be killing yourselves. Please don't tell me about Ooni who your must trusted historian, Johnson recorded as being a descendant of shrine keeper. Don't tell me about Alaafin who once begged the Oba of Benin to save him from other Yoruba tribes. I don't know of your other achievements and accomplishments that is greater than the great wall of Benin, four times the great wall of China and many times the size of the great pyramids of Egypt, what really makes you guys think you are superior, is it because your said it. You guys like to make claims you can't back up with credible evidence. Benin is not interested in fabricated evidence. Benin/Ife is a fabrication.

samuk: Im going to build a chronology for you. 1 - Oruh is a forest land, in it lived a disorganized and uncivilized people. 2 - Ife sent a corps of city-builders to put in order and civilization. 3 - The builders established a new order called Igodomigodo. 4 - Ife sent ruler called Ogiso to oversee the new state and sustain order. 5 - At a point in time disorder returned to the civilized city. Enmity and conflicts erupted and threatened the civilization. 6 - Ogiso council sent request to Ife to ask for intervention. 7 - Ife dispatched nd gave AUTHORITY to Oranmiyan to enter Igodomigodo and reform it. 8 - Oranmiyan went with a new set of Chiefs. 9 - Oranmiyan established a new order and called it Benin and ruled in Benin. 10 - Oranmiyan had a child in Benin. He returned to Ife, leaving his child and Chiefs behind in Benin to exercise his AUTHORITY. 11 - His child was crowned OMO N'OBA N'EDO. 12 - The lineage of Oranmiyan continues till today to exercise AUTHORITY of the reformer in Edo.

MetaPhysical: All these happened and when the Portuguese arrived Benin over 500 years ago and ask questions, Benin didn't remember to tell them Ife, Oranmiyan or Oduduwa but they said Oghene in the east. Guy, wake up, Ife is not east of Benin and Oghene is not Oduduwa. Stop wasting your time. We are now all doing our research and looking towards the east of Benin. Ife is not there. No matter how many times a lie is told, it remains a lie. We have already woken up from the lies and forging ahead in our research.

East of Benin is Udo. And if you read the history of the town Udo she once competed with Benin seriously. The first moats built by Oba Oguola was to fend against attacks coming from Akpanigiankor of Udo. Oromiyan came to Benin through that route and he settled in Egor. So east of Benin is Udo and Udo is very ancient. It was from Udo that the Osemawe of Ondos came from after the war with Oba Esigie in the 15th century. Maybe I could be wrong but the east is definitely not Ife . Can you Yoruba folks just leave Edo people alone. Must you write us into your story. Na wa oooo. Yes we were inferior and we had ondo and Ekiti states under us. Inferior and we had Lagos....abi Abeg make una free us abeg |

samuk: You have summed it up. That's the fact. It's the result of the worsened tribalism. The youth are far worse tribalists. You would have though NYSC, more exposure and travelling would. Since 1967, outbreak of Biafra War. Ultimately, it what endangers our collective co-existence. When you think you are a big tribe and you can beat chest and condescend on the culture and history of others out of hubris and spoiling for a fight, then it's waste of time. Samuk, they claim is irrelevant, but they create thread upon thread about Benin. That shows only one thing: OBSESSION. Not surprising because where else do you see a people whose morning salutation tells the history of family clan? Where tradition has been preserved undiluted despite been the first to encounter Christianity, where every nook and cranny of the Kingdom tells a story? Where history lives and breathes? Where a monarchy was revived with vigour despite the machinations of the British? Benin is pretty unique. |
