 Igbo. from Western Africa

The igbo culture is from west Africa.  They are horticulturalists that occupy the present day Nigeria. 

 They are similar to Hinduism because they also have a caste system or a system of rank or class.  They do not believe that life ends at the point of death, they believe in reincarnation. According to  Chinwe Achebe"everyone goes  home’ from whence he came when his shopping is done, to begin afresh his continuous cycle of birth, death, reincarnation on a similar, higher or lower level of existence depending on how he had lived his previous life" Igbo homes are built of woods and stakes that are driven into the ground.  Since the Igbo are very close with each other in their region, neighbors often provide help in assisting the building of homes.  One thing that has been known to destroy Igbo houses in Africa are white ants.
