Om episode
In the 6th episode, we dive into the story of the Dahomey Amazons, a fierce all-female fighting unit in the army of the pre-colonial state of Dahomey, located in the modern day country of Benin. We discuss their formation, why they were feared and their role in Dahomey punching well above its weight to become one of the most powerful states in West Africa.
