Western Ijaw Tarakiri is a collection of communities spread across banks of the Nun and Forcados Rivers in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Clan members lay claim to a common ancestor, Tarakiri-Owei. ==Clans== Clanship in Izonland is dictated by common ancestry, and not by geography. As such, the clan has a fairly wide geographical distribution, with Agbere located far upstream on the banks of the Nun River, and Agbidiama located close enough to the Nigerian coastline to be a classified as a salt water river town. Three towns in the clan are Urhobo speaking, whilst the rest are Izon speaking. Most towns in the clan are however clustered close to the Tarakiri-Ogbesu (juju) shrine on the banks of Forcados river, the deity itself being integral to the culture of the Tarakiri peoples. The 13 communities that constitute the clan are: * Adoubo * Agbere, * Agbidiama * Angalabiri * Ayamasa * Bulou-orua * Ebedebiri * Egbemo-Angalabiri * Igbidama * Isampou * Oduovbari * Ofoni * Toru-orua 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「Tarakiri west」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
