Yoruba tradition
Definition
- It is interesting that those who claim to be Yoruba do not, strictly speaking, have a generally accepted meaning for the name. The Yoruba country lies roughly between latitudes 6° and 9° north and longitudes 2°30′ and 6°30′ east, with a total land area of about 181,300 square kilometers in what is now southwestern Nigeria.
