Essential Skills and Responsibilities in Yorùbá Household
In Yorùbá culture, Ilé is more than a house—it’s the spiritual and social heart of family, lineage, and tradition. Within each ilé, roles like leadership, ritual practice, cultural education, and emotional care ensure harmony and generational continuity. Whether in a compound in Òṣogbo or an apartment in Chicago, the ilé remains a sacred space where character is shaped and ancestral wisdom lives on.
