Description
What is now known as Igbominaland commences from about 145 km North-East of the ancient city of Ile-Ife and stretches as far as South-Eastern banks of River Niger up to Jebba. It shares boundaries with Kabba to the North East, Ekiti to the South-East, florin and Afon to the North-West, Ijagbo and Oyan to the West and OtanAyegbaju to the South-West. It is roughly speaking, between latitude 8° and 8“ 481 39".8 North ofthe Equator and longitude 4°.3O' and 4°. 56' 25“ 1 East of the Greenwich. The vegetation of the entire area is thick forest punctuated by patches of cultivated land around the main towns and villages. Usually, the ridges and hills, whenever the bare rock domes are absent are very thickly wooded. In the North-Eastern part ofOke-Ode as well as most of Jebba and Share, comparatively open woodland Savannah predominates; but even in such areas, scattered patches of rain forest are found.
