This culture can be utilized for the Cpurpose of employment creation, environmental preservation and for social enhancement as well as serving as a unifying factor between people through psychological shaping of people's attitude. Osun consist of many cultural heritage areas which lifted it up to a stage of tourism havens in the country's tourism line. The state accorded great importance to tourism due to the fact that the Yoruba race is seen as the specie through which all human race, black and white emerged and belief to have spread all over the world beginning at Osogbo. Infact the state government have identified about 63 attractions sites through feasibility study while the inventory of the attractions proved that there are over 145 tourism attractions. The interest of this study and osun in particular is due to the uniqueness of the activities line up. This has led to the increased in the population of the tourist yearly. The attractions are not alone the center of focus but including the supporting facilities.

    Pilgrimage Circuit of Osun Osogbo Sacred Grove and Shrine, Osun State, Nigeria Okonkwo, Emeka E., and Eyisi, Afamefuna P. Department of Archaeology and Tourism, University of Nigeria, Nsukka. DOI: https://doi.org/10.33281/JTHS20129.2017.2.2 Abstract One religious tourism destination site of note in Southwestern Nigeria is the Osun Osogbo sacred grove and shrine located along the banks of the Osun River within the city of Oshogbo, Osun State, Nigeria. The sacred grove and shrine were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2005. This paper examines the routes and trails people take to get to Osun Osogbo sacred grove and shrine to ascertain the mode of transportation to the destination site as well as the factors mitigating against the sacred grove. The study uses ethnographic methods to elicit information from respondents and data collected were analyzed descriptively. The paper argues that Osun Osogbo sacred grove and shrine can improve the living standard of the host community and create job opportunities if its access routes and trails are improved upon by the government. Keywords: Pilgrimage circuit, Sacred grove and shrine, Osun Osogbo, tourism Introduction Africa as a continent has always been known from time immemorial, as a people significantly associated with the worshipping of traditional gods and goddesses, which is an accurate reflection of their religious life. Like the Greeko-Roman Empire, tradtional Africa had so many gods and goddesses that they deified in sacred places (Ikoro and Ekevere 2016). These gods and goddesses had temples where altars were engraved for prayers and sacrifices, which are often referred to as shrines.

  • An Examination of Ritualization in Some Yoruba Outdoor Sculptures
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 3 No. 14 [Special Issue - July 2013] Between Beautification and Paranormal: An Examination of Ritualization in Some Yoruba Outdoor Sculptures Akintonde, Moses Akintunde Department of Fine and Applied Arts Ladoke Akintola University of Technology P. M. B. 4000, Ogbomoso, Nigeria Abstract Ritualism and paranormal experience in public outdoor sculpture art is already a concern for some Yoruba communities. The eerie occurrence, which is ephemeral in nature, is yet to be scholarly studied. Since the occurrence is also part of the history of the art within a social environment, it is necessary to examine it critically as it affects the development of the art. Outdoor sculpture ritualizations, the paranormal actions in them, the effects on the sculptures and the public have been examined in this study. The paranormal case of Iya-Ila statute in Ila-Orangun and the ritualization of Ajagunnla and other outdoor sculptures in some Yoruba towns were focused. The beliefs of the Yoruba about cross-roads were also examined in relation to the outdoor sculpture common location. Keywords: Beautification, environmental adornment, Outdoor Sculpture, Paranormal, Ritualization Background Outdoor Sculptures are primarily objects of environmental adornment. They are purposely integrated in the general physical plan of towns, cities and metropolis to enhance order and beauty in the environment. Besides the prime function, it also serves as memoriam of certain personalities or an idea. When properly contemplated the sculpture subconsciously teaches the public some civic orders. Folarin succinctly described the functions of outdoor sculpture in the following statement; Urban sculpture has often complemented man’s effort in many centuries.

  • Samuel Johnson on the Egyptian Origin of the Yoruba
    SAMUEL JOHNSON ON THE EGYPTIAN ORIGIN OF THE YORUBA by Jock Matthew Agai A thesis submitted to the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2016 Declaration I, Jock Matthew Agai, hereby declare that ‘SAMUEL JOHNSON ON THE EGYPTIAN ORIGIN OF THE YORUBA’ is my own original work, and that it has not been previously accepted by any other institution for the award of a degree, and that all quotations have been distinguished by quotation mark, and all sources of information have been duly acknowledged. __________________________ Jock Matthew Agai (Student) ______________________ Professor Phillippe Denis (Supervisor) 30 November 2016 i Dedication This research is dedicated to my grandmother, the late Ngo Margaret alias Nakai Shingot, who passed away in 2009, during which time I was preparing for this research. She was my best friend. May her gentle soul rest in peace. ii Thesis statement The Yoruba oral tradition, according to which the original ancestors of the Yoruba originated from the “East,” was popular in Yorubaland during the early 19th century. Before the period 1846 to 1901, the East was popularly perceived by the Yoruba as Arabia, Mecca or Saudi Arabia. Samuel Johnson (1846-1901) mentioned that Mohammed Belo (1781-1837) was among the first Africans to write that the East meant Arabia, Mecca or Saudi Arabia. He contested the views of associating the East with a Muslim land or a Muslim origin. In contrast to these views, Johnson believed that the East actually meant Egypt. This thesis presents research into Samuel Johnson’s contribution towards the development of the tradition of Egyptian origins of the Yoruba.

    CONFLICT, WAR, DISPLACEMENT AND ARCHAEOLOGY IN PARTS OF OSUN STATE, SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIA By BENJAMIN ADISA OGUNFOLAKAN (Matric No. 68943) B.A. Archaeology (Moscow, Russia) M.A. Archaeology (Moscow, Russia) M.Sc. Archaeology (Ibadan, Nigeria) M.Phil. Archaeology (Ibadan, Nigeria) A thesis in the Department of ARCHAEOLOGY/ANTHROPOLOGY, Submitted to the Faculty of Science in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Of the UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN LIBRARY i CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1: Introduction This study entails archaeological and anthropological investigations in parts of northeast Osun. It also touches on aspects of previous archaeological works carried out in the study area. The work examines the concepts of conflict, war and displacement in the light of archaeological and anthropological evidences from the area. Before now, most archaeological works done in southwestern Nigeria were concentrated on Ile-Ife, Benin, Old Oyo and Owo focussing mostly on art works in bronze, terracotta, and wood. Other themes especially conflict, war and displacement vital to the areas‘ history and archaeology have been neglected. To understand this neglect, and other related issues in parts of Osun Northeast of Osun State, Nigeria, series of archaeological works were carried out since 1992 by the author. The first phase of the research work which took the author to Ila-Orangun, Ila-Yara, Oyan, Asi, Asaba, Iresi and Ajaba (Kajola) was meant to expose the archaeological potentials of this part of Osun northeast for future intensive archaeological investigation (Ogunfolakan 2006). The second phase was a continuation of the previous exercise with visits to other notable towns and villages in Northeast Osun such as Oke-Ila, Ila-Magbon, Para-Oke, Otan-Ayegbaju, Ire, Ikirun and revisit to Iresi which had earlier on been visited.

  • Towards Efficient Transport Connectivity for Sustainable Market Patronage in Nigeria
    International Journal of Developing Societies Vol. 1, No. 2, 2012, 88-96 Towards Efficient Transport Connectivity for Sustainable Market Patronage in Nigeria Omole F.K, Owoeye J.O* and Ogundiran A.O Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria Market centre and transportation system are inseparable land-uses. The success or failure of one makes or mar the other. This paper aims at examining how the transport situation in Osun State has affected the market patronage of farm products in the State. The use of sample technique, observation method and road inventory survey were employed. Out of the 253 registered market centres in the state, 60 of them were selected for survey. This represents 23.7%. The selection was done by picking two market centres from the existing 30 local government areas in the state; one from the local government headquarters and the other ones randomly selected by ballot from the remaining market centres in the local governments. Major findings reveal the existence of large range of goods and services in the existing 253 registered market centres which are in their hierarchy of specialization. Other findings include poor road net-work and bad condition of roads which compelled market patrons to use motorcycle as their major mode of transport.. A large numbers of market centres and even towns were found ‘unconnected’ by Direct Motor-able Routes (DMR). Recommendation include imploring government to open-up more roads, supplying more commercial buses, introduction of empowering programmed and lastly adoption of public–private-participation in road construction and management.
