Alor Anthropological Source Book Anambra Nigeria

With the dearth of books and publications on the histories of the various communities of Ndigbo,
Alor: An Anthropological Source Book, is a commendable gap-filling project by the Alor
Development Initiative. The book has no pretension to being a statement of documented historical
facts; it derives mainly from oral traditions passed on from generation to generation. In Obosi
where I am an Ndichie, Ichie Adazie Obosi, we know and had it written as far back as 1924 by
Igwe I. E. Iweka, Eze Obosi, in his book, The History of Obosi and Igboland in Brief, that we are
descendants of Adike who was related to Alor and Ojoto.
This book contains very useful data and material which not only inform, but also should serve as a
rich basis for work by future researchers in authoritative history of Alor and the other eighteen
Communities washed by the Idemili River.
