Oduduwa: The First King: Ile-Ife, the Descent, and the Origin of the Yoruba Crown

The Orisha Library

Every Yoruba crown traces back to one descent. Oduduwa is the progenitor — Ile-Ife, the founding, the dynastic line that runs from him through every legitimate throne in Yorubaland. This volume opens the patakis of the descent, the contested version alongside the received one, his offerings, and what ancestry actually means in a tradition that counts it.
