Igbo women? I doubt. Their headgear,jigida on their waist n d bangles on their legs

Maybe they are Igbo's but dressed to show African attire, because their outfit here looks strange

oladimejiX:

Well i said recent because of how developed other parts of the world was at that time

Its more like how colonized most parts of the world was at that time, to be seeing not colonized African traditions in such a late stage of non African colonialism.
The 1920s is a recent stage of "development" for many other parts of the world, its a late stage of African development.
Many other parts of the world outside of Africa was far from been develop in the 1920s.

Formed "some" civilizations, although not to the scale of other groups, huh?

Well... I guess it was about time we started stratifying African groups from most civilized to most barbaric. If you can't beat the rest of the racially obsessed world, join them.

....And this is why I find some of this history/empire bullsh*t overrated and dumb.

But sir/ms, didn't I say...

and they were still pretty advanced.

I find nothing "racially" and sinister about the statement.
Since it didn't used any anti African anti Black Euro-centric yardstick for the comparison
as many of the "racially obsessed" colonial minds debates between some Africans do.
Especially Some "Somalis"

What kind a logic is that?
They are Africans, so their own attire is African. Maybe you mean other "African attire"
The head gear look kind of southern African to me, the foot gear looks like a whole lot of
overlapping with other African groups and some natives in south India.
I think the older the African tradition the more it show connections between African
cultures including those of the Nile Valley, and who we are.

My point flew over your head (or you're playing ostrich), but that's okay.

Carry on.

Please, I'm not even Nigerian, I'm just here to study culture and history. Why would I have beef with any particular ethnic group of a country I'm not even from? Are you sane, or do you just bark left and right?

We are now graduating to personal insults, innit?

Nobody has to be Nigerian to say anything here that will attract some comments or criticism.

You made a comment, I reacted to the comment, you insult me, I call it a day.

Bye now.

I quote info from my text book, you insult me, I tried to clarify, you refuse to acknowledge, so I call it a day.

Ciao.

I am looking to see where I miss your point but I cant find where.
Actually I think its a good post, but I think it was necessary to make that comment about the "racial" part.

But if a girl decides to cover up a little more than these women did, she will still be called an ashiii
