dc.descriptionThis work is concerned with a study ofthe relations between two peoples of the Delta provirice, Midwestern state of Nigeria. These peoples are the Itsekiri, fisher-folks and traders, who occupy the coastal belt, and the Urhobo, a hinterland, agricultural people. The respective geographical location of these peoples has been one of the most important determinants of the relationship between them. It was this which dictated their varying occupations and so determined the nature of their commercial and other relations. Geographical location not only determined the nature of Urhobo Itsekiri relations during the period covered by this study, it was also of the most crucial consequence for the relations of each of these groups with Europeans operating in the Western delta of the Niger.
