Book Name: Political Organization in Nigeria
Writer: John N. Oriji
Archeological and etymological sources recommend that foragers occupied
Igboland during the Middle LSA (8000b.c–3000b.c.).1The sources also assert
that a few foragers from the Igbo territory just as from other parts of
southeastern Nigeria, possessed by the Bantu, had begun to migrate in
waves from their country to populate the vast majority of sub-Saharan
Africa between 5000b.c. furthermore, 4000b.c.2Oral customs of the early
Igbo dealing with scavenging is lost to memory. The Nri, for instance, give
faint traces of foraging time by asserting that their legendary organizer, Eri,
slipped from the sky to the Anambra River when sweet potatoes and
different yields had not been domesticated in the area.3There are
comparative customs of autochthonous gatherings who had involved
various pieces of the Igbo hinterland in old occasions, saying that they
“grew from the earth.” Their developments over the thick tropical tropical
jungles were most likely encouraged by “elephant ways.” Although
the tradition of Aba town, for instance, manages a later period, it claims
that the ancestors of the town, from northern Ngwa land, utilized elephant
paths to move and settle close to the Aza River. Consequently, Aba is
prominently called “Enyimba” (lit. the elephant town).4The conventions and
P. Monitoring’s investigation of human relocations propose that riverbanks
, coastlines and lakesides were among the early zones of human habitation
in Igboland during the rummaging era.

5Their key location-enabled foragers
to continue themselves with the assets of both the riverain and woodland
biological zones. Furthermore, it was simpler, quicker, and more secure for
them to travel on the streams than through the thickly forested territories
populated by wild and perilous carnivores.
