THE Ijebu People are really enterprising, astute business-like as well as agriculturalist Yoruboid-speaking people that forms a sub-set of the larger Yoruba ethnic group, inhabiting the South-Central business office of Yorubaland inwards South-Western Nigeria. The Ijebu people who constitute the largest ethnic grouping inwards the Yoruba Earth reside peculiarly inwards parts of Ogun as well as Lagos U.S. of A. of Nigeria.

The Ijebu territory is bounded inwards the North yesteryear Ibadan, inwards the East yesteryear Ondo, Okitipupa as well as the West yesteryear Egbaland. The Southern fringe is opened upwards to the body of body of water amongst the coastlines of Epe, Ejinrin as well as Ikorodu. Despite the political segmentation which has these iii towns inwards Lagos piece the brain business office of Ijebuland remains inwards Ogun State, the people bring ever regarded themselves equally 1 entity fifty-fifty when the immigration legends which bring oftentimes been cited betoken inwards different directions. The Ijebu state consisted of five divisions: Ijebu-Ife, Ijebu-Igbo, Ijebu-Ode, Ijebu-Ososa as well as Ijebu-Remo.
The Ijebu people are identified amongst 4 types of oriki ({Ijebu}, a really of import oral poetic genre amid the Yoruba people of Southwestern Nigeria): Apeja (oriki soki or yell version), Orufi (oriki) ulu praises of towns, Orufi gbajumo (praises of distinguished personalities), Orufi orisa (praises of gods) as well as Orufi Oba (praises of obas). The orufi establishes that the Ijebu people are a veritable link inwards the relations of the Yoruba people as well as the world.
The yell “Ijebu” was derived from the expression: “Ije-ibu” (food of the deep). The Ijebus themselves claim to bring descended from “Oba-nita,” thus, referring to themselves equally “Ogetiele, eru Obanita” (that is, “Ogetiele, servants of Obanita”).
However, the people, dissimilar other Yoruba groups seems to bring different migration legends. One schoolhouse of idea tend to link the Ijebu amongst the biblical Jebusites as well as Noah (hence Omoluwabi -- omo ti Noah bi -- the children of Noah), the other legend likewise delineate the source of Yoruba people, as well as yesteryear implication, the Ijebu to Mecca where Oduduwa, the legendary ancestor of the Yoruba, was said to hold out the boy of King Lamurudu. Oduduwa, according to the legend, had to hold out expelled from Mecca when he resorted to idolatry. With the tertiary schoolhouse of thought, the Ijebu traditional historians tend to stick to the migration legend that the people migrated to their acquaint territory from a portion of Sudan called Waddai which agency that the Ijebu had a parallel migration moving ridge only similar other Yoruba who believe they came to their acquaint abode via Oduduwa. That claim seems to hold out corroborated yesteryear a publication yesteryear 1 Haile Mariam which states that "the most powerful people that the Negede Orit (ancient Ethiopian immigrants into Africa) met inwards East Africa were the Jebus." Their King was claimed to hold out as well as so influential that he appointed the governors of Yemen. If that manful someone monarch was the same Olu-Iwa, the legendary outset Ruler of Ijebuland, nosotros produce non know.
Whatever hold out the case, most of Africans were 1 time settled inwards Mesopotamia as well as they all left to Arab Republic of Egypt and, Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia Sudan (Kush/Meroe). These house was the convergence betoken of most African ethnic groups earlier their dispersion or migration to their electrical current settlements.
Ijebu people founded an ancient metropolis Ijebu-Ode which archaeological evidence has proved to hold out inwards being from A.D. 900. By the 15th century, Ijebu was a highly organized as well as powerful nation, as well as defended itself against enemies. Ijebu Empire was instant to Oyo’s empire inwards the 15th century.
There was already reference to it inwards the 16th century yesteryear Pereira, who noted that “twelve or 13 leagues upwards this river [the Lagos lagoon] is a really large metropolis called Geebuu, surrounded yesteryear a keen moat. The ruler of this province inwards our fourth dimension is called Agusale [Awujale], as well as the merchandise is mainly inwards slaves ...but in that location is about ivory” (Pereira trans. Kimble, 1937: 123). By the 18th century, statements almost the coastal merchandise of the Ijebu placed greater emphasis on the traffic inwards arts and crafts products. John Barbot (1732: 354), for instance, noted it equally a house “where proficient fine cloths are made as well as sold yesteryear the natives to foreigners, who bring a proficient vent for them at the Gold Coast…”

More than the other Yoruba people, the Ijebu people bring had a long fourth dimension relation or the outset Yoruba people to bring contact amongst the Europeans inwards the early on 14th century. This is because the Ijebu are the one-time coastal traders/ middle-men for the European goods, variously acknowledged yesteryear historians (Ajayi & Espie 1965), as well as equally farther proved yesteryear Biobaku (1972) ...Until the nineteenth century, European activities were restricted to the coast, as well as the exclusively Yoruba states of which Europeans had whatsoever first-hand noesis were Ijebu and, later, Lagos..." An evidence of Ijebu merchandise amongst European is found inwards excerpts from orufi Ijebu -Ode:
"Omo A-b’oyinbo jogu owo." (One whose forebears traded amongst Europeans
Omo Oyinbo Iyonro Offspring of the European at Iyonro
Ee mi gu’de ko mi gu’ba The brass as well as copper smith
Ko n gu naaaro If he did non smith inwards the morning
Ee gu n’ale" He would smith at night)
Iyonro is a sub-quarter of Uwade inwards Ijebu-0de. Odusino (2004: 10) says that Iyonro was the abode of the outset laid of Ijebu people who learnt gold-smithing from Europeans. It was these Ijebu people who inwards plow taught the merchandise to others whence it got diffused to the other Yoruba people as well as other Nigerians.
