dbpprop:abstract
  • The Aro people or Aros of West Africa, are a predominately Igbo subgroup who originated in Arochukwu. A mix of Igbo/Akpa and Ibibio people, they have a unique culture. They are mostly found in Nigeria and scattered throughout 300 settlements but can be found from the Niger Delta area to present-day Gabon. Most Aro settlements in Nigeria are in the Igboland and other areas in Southern Nigeria. The Aros today are mostly classified as Cross River Igbos due to their culture and the language they speak. Their god, Ibini Ukpabi, was a key factor in Aro migration and intermarriage during slave trade.
  • Arot ovat eräs igbojen ryhmistä. Heille on kehittynyt erilainen kulttuuri, heidän sekoittuessa muihin kansoihin. Suurin osa heistä asuu Nigerian eteläosissa ja Gabonissa. He kehittivät oman kirjoitusjärjestelmänsä, nsibidin. Arojen valtioliitto kasvoi vaikutusvaltaiseksi valtioksi kunnes britit tuhosivat sen 1902 sodassa.
  • Le peuple Aro est un groupe ethnique en Afrique de l'Ouest, considéré comme sous-groupe de l'ethnie Ibo. Ils vivent principalement dans le sud-est du Nigeria.
