Queen Idia of the Benin Kingdom was a powerful warrior queen and mother of Oba Esigie, who ruled in the early 16th century. She played a crucial role in securing the throne for her son and protecting the kingdom from invaders.

Her immense strength and influence are celebrated in one of the most iconic pieces of African art: the Queen Idia of the Benin Kingdom was a powerful warrior queen and mother of Oba Esigie, who ruled in the early 16th century. She played a crucial role in securing the throne for her son and protecting the kingdom from invaders.

Her immense strength and influence are celebrated in one of the most iconic pieces of African art: the Idia Mask. This beautiful ivory mask, meticulously carved with symbolic motifs, was created in her honor. It's not just a stunning work of art; it's a testament to her power, wisdom, and the high regard in which she was held. The mask is so significant that a depiction of it was chosen as the emblem for the second World Black and African Festival of Arts and Culture (FESTAC '77).

Queen Idia's story is one of a woman who was a military strategist and a spiritual figure, forever remembered as a symbol of strength and matriarchal power in the history of the Benin Kingdom. #motherslove #africanwomen #iyaoba Read More
