In this work of literary anthropology, the oriki poetry of Okuku, a small town in the Oyo state of Nigeria, is looked at in detail. Women are the main performers of oriki , or oral praise poetry. As a major part of both performance and daily life, it reflects social change and structure, past, and present, and shows much that is lost to anthropologists otherwise.
