Ebrié
The Ebrié are an Akan people people living in the Abidjan region of Côte d'Ivoire.〔Olson, James Stuart (1996). The peoples of Africa: an ethnohistorical dictionary. Santa Barbara, CA: Greenwood Press. pp. 18. ISBN 978-0-313-27918-8. Retrieved 18 April 2010.〕 Originally called the "Tchaman" or "Achan" (both of which mean "the chosen ones" in the Ebrié language), the name Ebrié was given to them by the neighboring Abouré people. In the Abouré language, Ebrié means "dirty" or "soiled," and was given to them after a military defeat. In turn, however, the Ebrié refer to the Abouré as "Koroman," which means "dirty people" in the Ebrié language. The traditional lands of the Ebrié lie along the lagoon which bears their name, which extends from Grand-Bassam (in the east) to Assagni (in the west) and includes the city of Abidjan and its environs. The Ebrié make up approximately 0.7% of the population of Côte d'Ivoire.
==History of the Ebrié/Tchaman People==
The Ebrié are members of the Akan ethnolinguistic group. Their oral history relates that the tribe was originally located to the northeast, near the lands of the Ashanti in Ghana, but that they fled to the south after a great defeat in battle by a neighboring tribe.〔Bouscayrol, René, "Notes sur le peuple Ébrié", in ''Bulletin de l'Institut Français d'Afrique noire'', Volume XI, Issues 3-4, July–October 1949, p. 382-408〕 They are believed to have begun immigrating to their present location in the eighteenth century, and the migration took place in several stages, or waves. In Côte d'Ivoire, the Ebrié are traditionally divided into nine distinct kinship groups, or phratries (''goto'' in the Ebrié language): Kwè, Bidjan, Yopougon, Nonkwa, Songon, Bodo, Dyapo, Bya and Gnangon. All told, these nine phratries form a community that spans the sixty-three villages in the region.
