The Oba River (Yoruba: Odo Ọba) is a river in Oyo and Osun States in Nigeria. It is the main tributary of the Osun River. The landscape varies from wooded savanna in the north to rain forest in the south. The river is heavily polluted. Most of the people who live along its length practice farming and fishing. ==Name== The Ọba River is named for the goddess Ọba, one of the wives of Shango, the Yoruba god of thunder. His other wives were Ọshun and Ọya. According to legend Ọshun tricked Ọba into cutting off her ear and adding it to Shango's food, saying it would please him. When Shango found what Ọba had done he rejected her. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oba River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
