Recognising that the Oku cultural space is characterised by scattered pieces of literature, this book therefore fills this paucity of information by focusing on issues such as the roots or traces of Oku origin, physical features, the political and social organisation, traditional religion and medicine, relation with other kingdoms within the grassfields, socio-economic development and political evolution. From this perspective, the analyses go beyond mere presentation of historical facts.
