The Tchaman or Ébrié are an Akan people living in the Abidjan region of Côte d'Ivoire. Originally called the "Tchaman/Kyama/Gyama" or "Achan" (both of which mean "the chosen ones" in the Ebrié language), the name Ébrié was given to them by the neighboring Abouré people. In the Abouré language, Ébrié means "bad" and was given to them after a military defeat. In turn, however, they refer to the Abouré as "Koroman," which means "dirty people" in the Tchaman, Kyaman, or Gyaman (Achan) language. The traditional lands of the Tchaman/Kyaman/Gyaman lie along the Ébrié Lagoon, which extends from Grand-Bassam (in the east) to Assagni (in the west) and includes the city of Abidjan and its environs. The Tchaman (also Kyaman, Gyaman) make up approximately 0.7% of the population of Côte d'Ivoire.

  • Els Ebriés (o kyames) són un grup ètnic que forma part dels Àkans i viuen a la regió d'Abidjan de Costa d'Ivori, on representen el 0,7% de la població. Els 63 pobles de la regió Ebrié es divideixen en nou grups que s'anomenen Kwè, Bidjan, Yopougon, Nonkwa, Songon, Bodo, Dyapo, Bya i Gnangon. La seva llengua és l'ebrié, una de les llengües nigerocongoleses del grup Àkan. Hi ha entre 75.900 (1988), 136.000 (joshuaproject) i 144.000 ebriés. Els seus orígens històrics s'han d'anar a buscar a prop dels llacs de la regió Ashanti de Ghana, però van haver d'anar al sud a partir del segle xviii després de lluitar contra una tribu veïna. Originàriament anomenats "Tchaman" o "Achan" (dos paraules que signifiquen els escollists en la seva llengua), després d'una derrota militar els seus veïns Abouré els passaren a anomenar Ebriés, que significa bruts. Per aquest motiu els Ebriés van passar a anomenar als Abouré com Koroman, que significa gent bruta. (ca)
