The Yoruba culture is diversified and yet so unique and the Yoruba language is been spoken widely all around the world, from some parts in Brazil (South America), some parts in Europe, even some parts in Asia and the many other parts in Africa beside Nigeria where the tribe and the languages really originated from. A yoruba person are usually humble, reserved if properly groomed and brought up from a back family that values self preservation, discipline, motivation and above all, respect which is the most paramount thing a real yorubaman never plays with since this is the base at which they were founded upon.

A yoruba person would greet elders or older people with respect and courtesy than them using "e" which sounded like "eh" and this is a form of salutation holding someone in high regards, and one other thing they support it with, for the males, they prostrate and the females kneel down at all times which is a unique ways in their greetings and this is always and the only difference between a yorubaman ways of greeting if ever you want to distinguish them from other.

There are various tribes in the yoruba clan that made up of the Yoruba tribes and each other them have a unique accent in their words whenever they are speaking but they are all the same as far back as yoruba is concerned and this is just tongues and doesn't have anything to do with them not being the same since it just their tongues ways of speaking. Take a typical example is the Japanese languages of "Kanji" and the others which changes the way they are spoken but doesn't change them from being the same Japanese and many ore other countries with similar characteristics and language tongues and features.

A person of yoruba origin, might not really be faithful with other fellow yorubamen that is not their relative or family members, this is because, they like competitions a lot and this is the reason why they usually look like they hate each other since this has really burrowed deeply into their being and what makes them humans, and a yorubaman for that matter but, other Nigerian folks might actually think that, because, they displays this mutual and cordial relationship with themselves by showing that they cared about themselves more than the others tribes since Nigeria has more than 250 ethnic groups, and amongst all of them, they usually think that the yorubas are the only odd ones out since they are the ones who doesn't really behaves as though they loved or like themselves but they made a mistakes since the yorubas only are competitives amongst themselves which looks like they don't really cared about themselves because, the other tribes would discounts the sales of products and services to themselves while the yoruba won't and this had made them to draw a conclusion that such is what is actually going on but not.

The yorubas like any other tribes, cultures and etc also have amongst them people who are wicked, bad and not upright as well as they have good people who is upright in all manners, well behaved and innocent to who are not out there to kill, destroyed or molest anyone just as they were in many other good cultures and even in most countries that are said to be the best place to raised a family 2014.

Just right before I made, and completed all my research on the subject matter, I have always knew that, the Nunavut is a part of a culture in Canada simple because, each and every country has its own ideal, ways, tribe, taste, culture, and even spirit just like Vanessa Williams once sang in the movies "Pocahontas" 'the color of the wind', in the 80s and in that song, I got to know that, culture is something that is unique to each and every country, from continent to another and so on.

Nunavut culture is one so unique and since a written historical accounts theirs begin or can be date back to 1576, with an account by an English explorer. Martin Frobisher  on an excursion in order to discover the Northwest Passage, which was said to be filled with Gold ore around the body of water now known as Frobisher Bay on the coast of Baffin Island. But, it was discovered that, the ore turns out to be worthless and so Frobisher made the first recorded European contact with the Inuit. 

And some of the explorers who also searched for the elusive Northwest Passage followed in the 17th century, including and not limited to, Robert Bylot, Henry Hudson, and William Baffin.

Nunavut region has continuously supported populations for up to 4000 years, and most historians also would identify this coast of Baffin Island with the Helluland described in Norse sagas, so it is possible that the inhabitants of the region had occasional contact with Norse sailors in those days, and in September 2008, researchers reported on the evaluation of existing and newly excavated archaeological remains, including yarn spun from rats, tally, a hare, tally sticks, a and carved wooden face mask depicting Caucasian features.

These artifacts seems to have indicated that, they have been prolonged contact and possibly up to 1450 because, the origin of the Old World contact was unclear; the article states: "Dating of some yarn and other artifacts, presumed to be left by Vikings on Baffin Island according to some archaeologists since they have produced an age that before the Vikings by several hundred and many years ago and so, we have to consider any possibility because, as remote as it may seems, these findings may represent or be an evidence of contacts with the Europeans before the Vikings' arrival in that time to the Greenland.".

Each culture and their tradition have always been so fascinating and no matter how or which angle you want to take a look at it, we are all endowed with culture or tradition that is worth dying for since loosing them could be that, we have not really existed and they need protected and proper documentation and w2ell preserved for our future and children yet unborn.

So, each culture tradition, valued and norms should be properly guarded in order to insure a longer lasting value.
