The “legend” of “The Lost Tribes of Israel” remained for
scholars,historians, archeologists, anthropologists and Hebraists
a fascinating topic for millennia. When Israel faced an imperial
conquest in the hands of the Assyrian empire in 722 B.C. as earlier
warned by prophets Isaiah and Hosea, the nation also went on
exile and into what seemed oblivion. A people who for penalty of
apostasy became a dispersed people across the globe for nearly
three thousand years creating a puzzle of identity and location
for so long has suddenly began to emerge from the shadows of
time. The account of their journey and experiences over this
period had largely remained conjectures as they assimilated
amongst foreign cultures. The Igbo, sojourned in the two sides of
lower Niger, one of Africa’s great rivers second only to the Nile
and like other exiled tribes of Israel was relatively unknown to
those who never had any contacts with them. The era of trans
- Atlantic forced migrations and European colonization opened
this connection. The exposition of a people’s beliefs, behavior,
attitudes and values within religious, cultural and political context
had only affi rmed their origin and identity.
