Only Igbos have a very accurate pre colonial native calendar.
The Igbo week is made of 4 days
Igbo month is made of 7 weeks
And the Igbo year is made of 13 months
The Igbo year is a total of 364 days, approximately same with white man's 365 days in a year.

Celebrate your ibo calender in peace and stop acting like an ignoramus

Yoruba has a calender system which is Lunar or Moon based, Islam and Arabs have theirs which Northerners follow

Rotten wood brings ant home, it's kids like you that get people looking at Ibos somehow

Igbo calender is more like chinese calendar as it shows here . both have 13 months in a year depends on how it came on with. Means year with different calculations .

So "only igbo" now means mentioning you- your tribe? Wow

Since you are here, I guess other tribes should also bomb the thread as per the OP mentioned them-only igbo.

You never talk Wetin dey prick your soul.

However, just know that nothing kills faster than hate

The OP is a rabid tribalist on Nairaland. Not suprised he said "Only" Ibo.

Lots of tribe have accurate calendars before colonialism. OP should be penalized for posting false Information on Nairaland.

We need to reintroduce this system and other cultural things .
All the south eastern states need to adopt this

Nsibidi ,one of the oldest writing system in Africa , should be taught in eastern schools as well

Very clumsy

Northerners follow Arabs, nothing indegenous while Yoruba forged name of months. How can your so called lunar calendar be exactly same with oyibo 12 months calendar? I lived in yorubaland, they don't have Native market days (days of the native week) like Igbos

CameroonPepper:

Why did you come here I wonder.

A native lunar moon based calendar cannot be twelve months and exactly coincide with oyibo calender months. This was forged post colonial

Yorubas have no native calendar. You can't have a native calendar exactly same with oyibo own and a lunar calendar of 12 months. All you did was give yoruba names to oyibo months and it can't be pre colonial. Secondly, everybody knows that most native calendar don't start in January. December is actually the tenth month. September is also the seventh month.
The year starts around February/March in all native calenders including biblical Jewish calendar

Yes, only igbo calender is pre colonial. The yoruba calendar he posted only gave yoruba names to oyibos 12 calendar months and this happened post colonial

Please show it. In the north their local market use oyibo days of the week. Only Igbos have pre colonial days of the week, the four igbo market days

Thank you very much.

Yoruba has a calendar. Google would have helped you.

See ancient Yoruba calendar below 👇.

I am sure other tribes have calendars too. The ancestors of different tribes which make up the region called Nigeria today were not stupid.
