Christistruth00: The actual translation: "Captain Horseley called it Eco, and that is how the yebous refer to it; but it is not their land: it belongs to Benin, whom have named it Korame, you can recognise the Curamo from older Portuguese reports, just like Eko represents the Ichoo from Holland Hydrographs. Long ago Korame was linked to its metropolis by a very narrow piece of land contained between the great Laguna and the sea; but it has been a while since the Yebous have seazed that very narrow piece of land of which the eastern extremity was invaded by ouyo pirates; and Karamé remained isolated at the extremity of the great Laguna, while it continues to receive from Benin it's governor or political chief." The jebou seazed only a very narrow piece of land linking lagos to its metropolis (the rest of Benin empire) 3 Likes |

Christistruth00: Please stop saying nonesense, in this paper it is very well explained that "ouyos" stands for "Jos" which we call ijo today. Also it's weird you didn't find it strange that oyo people would be pirates, oyo are landdlocked people who had no presence near the sea. ijo are still pirates today. The fact is you don't understand the text because you don't speak french and you also lack common sense. 10 Likes |

Christistruth00: What is "language of land" and "tongue of land" ? You failed to notice that your google translation translated the same expression in 2 diffrent manners, and both translations are litteral translations with no meaning in english. For your info "langue de terre" means "narrow piece of land", not "language of land" nor "tongue of land". 7 Likes |

Westtimeline:Broda tire o, do you actually know that they were speaking Yoruba (Ile ife dialect) inside the palace of the Oba of Benin before they stopped around the 19th century. The two major empire in the Southern Nigeria is the Benin empire and the Oyo empire both came through Oranmiyan a Prince from Ile Ife. The only thing about the Benin empire is that it is a mixture of Yoruba from Ile Ife and the Aborigines of Idu/Igodomigodo. Also there was no name like Yoruba around the 14-15 century until Ajayi Crowther used it to Unify all of us with same Language, culture, traditions, norms and value system and from the same source Ile Ife, so during Benin did not want to be part of us, even when they were in Western Region, it was Oba Akenzua that was the major force that pushed for the creation of Mid West region. 1 Like |

forgiveness: Well anybody would be specualting, only the honnest would say "probably". Indeed the text doesn't say "ijaw" because the name ijaw didn't exist back then ! Instead the text says "Jos" and gives a description which fits the ijaws. So the people who best fit the description are the ijaws, and that is no speculation rather than the illiterate self-serving comment of your fellow yoruba who was quich to say "oyo". 3 Likes |
