In 1897, Benin City rose behind mighty earth walls and deep moats. Inside the palace, ivory tusks and brass plaques told the story of kings. Bronze casters shaped metal in honor of ancestors. The kingdom thrived in art, culture, and law. #BeninEmpire #EdoKingdom #AfricanHistory

An iconic list β but incomplete without Queen Idia of the Benin Kingdom. A warrior, strategist, and the first Iyoba, her legacy shaped an empire and echoes through time.
