by D. Amaury Talbot (Author)

Drawing from first-hand observations in early 20th-century Nigeria, this rare ethnographic account offers a detailed exploration of the ritual and spiritual lives of Iboibo women. Through ceremonies, rites of passage, and social customs, the book reveals the central role of women in maintaining cultural and religious traditions within their community.

Set against the backdrop of colonial-era anthropology, it stands out for its unique female perspective-a notable departure from the male-dominated narratives of its time. With attention to detail and cultural specificity, the work captures the complexity of gender roles and indigenous belief systems.

This compelling study remains a valuable resource for understanding the intersection of gender, culture, and power in a traditional African society.
