Members of the patrilineage live together under a headman's jurisdiction, share certain names and taboos, worship their deity, and access lineage lands based on patrilineal descent. The egbe, a male recreational association; the aro, a farmer's mutual-aid association; and the esusu, whose members pay a fixed sum of money and may obtain loans, are among the Yoruba's voluntary associations. The oba and a council of chiefs have political power; constituent towns each have their ruler subordinate to the oba. The oba is also a ceremonial chief who is revered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWest Africa is home to the Yoruba people. It ranges from the north to the south, from a savanna (grassland) area to tropical rain forests. The majority of Yoruba people live in Nigeria. However, Benin and Togo, both small countries to the west of Nigeria, have a few dispersed communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 134\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.29 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 10, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48154086736057,"sku":"9798719881669","price":17.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0792\/7057\/6313\/files\/KTz9DhNst9798719881669.webp?v=1784233689","url":"https:\/\/bigyaadbagged.com\/products\/yoruba-african-orishas-paperback","provider":"Big YAAD®Bagged","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
