This book examines the West African kingdom of Dahomey, located in present-day Republic of Benin and looks at its relationship to the religious, cultural, and national identity of the pre-colonial Kingdom of Dahomey (c. 1625-1892), colonial Dahomey (1892-1960) and post-colonial Benin (1960-present).
