Talk:Ilesa

[Untitled]
I am so glad I could read this article. I credit the good work of the chronologist on his almost accurate dating of the monarchical rules. So impressed and proud to be an Ijesha man. In addition, dialectically, the word Ilesha or Ilesa; seems to be deeper than we thought it to be. It is the combination of two important Yoruba word meaning ; Ile, "the foundation to settling and the idea of urbanization or community development within a geographical location and "Sha" is a parenthesis to the word meaning "to be choosing" in English. Thus my posit is that the full pronunciation in modified word is Ile Orisha, note "the house, the cradle, or the beginning of the chosen ones" "orisha" as rightly spelt, signifies those recognized with special abilities and not necessary God or gods, but are Godly or godly favor. Check with the Grecian history; Philosophical development "community" and religious development "pantheon ideology (the Olympian or the Titans". Thus, Ilesha simply put in modern word Ile Awon Ti Ori Sha, as Ori in Yoruba belief is a connotation for the creator of an individual note, "ibi ori dani si la'a gbe"; that is we are but a reflection of a predestined purpose of our maker or creator.

Separate Articles Required
We need a separate article on the city, on the historical state, on the rulers collectively (this is where the list can go, or it can be given a separate page) and on each of the rulers individually. Gallador (talk) 10:08, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Lack of consistency
Ilesa/Ijesa /Ilesha ?

They seem to be used interchangably and inconsistantly. Can we standardize? RJFJR 18:07, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

- standardise what? where are you from? we are a people of languages with meaning. dont talk rubbish and attempt to index what you do not understand. If you want to tell the difference you need to understand the culture. No, we cannot standardise.
