Few African artisans achieved as highly as the people of the now extinct Benin kingdom. The Benin people were denizens of Nigeria, and they brought the art of bronze(actually mostly brass) casting to a height that has likely not yet been exceeded on the continent of Africa. Upon the arrival of European missionaries and invaders, the discovery of Benin art led them to the belief that this art was stolen from the Jews or Egyptians, and could not have been produced by these people who were at that point considered subhuman. Extraordinary masks and figures had been produced using the simple lost-wax casting method, in addition to the now famous life-sized brass leopard figures, exclusively associated with the oba. Or King, as was much of the now known Benin art. Normal.dotm 0 0 1 65 374 Full Sail 3 1 459 12.0 0 false 18 pt 18 pt 0 0 false false false Though no longer extant and producing art. The Yoruba people that now inhabit the region that was once the Benin kingdom still produce art inspired by the Benin style. Judging by the apparent age of this piece, we presume it to be a Yoruba reproduction of the original style. These were mostly produced from Brass/Bronze using the lost wax casting method originally, and the fact that this is a wooden piece, further suggests this. The piece does demonstrate advanced age, in various minor age cracks, and wear marks. It is finely detailed, and produced from very dense wood, making it quite heavy for its size. The piece depicts a bust of a Benin Warrior in full armor with typical facial scarifications. Collected in Nigeria, this piece is absolutely stunning, and should be seen in person to be fully appreciated! It stands nicely on its ow

Traces of encrustation and wear are evidence that these twins were extensively used. These twins show some age. The Yoruba of Nigeria and of the Benin Republic are known for having an extraordinarily high rate of multiple births. The rate of twin births is one of the highest in the world. 45 of every 1,000 births(in the United States it is 28.9 of every 1000) There is also a high mortality rate; half of the twins die shortly after birth. In earlier times, new-born twins, or ibeji, as they are called, were believed to be evil, monstrous abnormalities and infanticide was a common practice. However, such beliefs and practices were later superseded and reversed, and by the middle of the 18th century twins came to be seen as a blessing; they were awarded the status of minor deities, called Orishas, and their arrival was viewed as an omen of good fortune for the family. By the 19th century the cult of the Ere Ibeji was firmly established and continues to this day. The death of one or both twins is regarded as a great calamity for the fa
