What happened

The foundation of the Alago (Arago) kingdom of Doma on the right bank of the Benue, above Igala territory, is attributed in tradition to migrations from Igala territory about 1232 CE. The book treats this early date cautiously but notes it implies Igala history extends well before the existing dynastic kinglist.
