WheresWallace said:MY Grandfather had 3 wives. Other people had family that multiple wives as well. I agree that it's less commonly practiced now due to western influence.
Are you African? Where are you getting your information from?
My Grandfather was polygamous and had a large farm compound with homes for all his wives and their children. When I was growing up it was actually pretty common I dunno bout thousands of years brehNo, it wouldn't solve anything and the vast majority of our ancestors weren't living like that at all. Monogamy was the rule, polygamy was an outlier in extreme circumstances that haven't existed for a couple thousand years.
not accurate or representative of even a fraction of Africa. things change from tribe to tribe so the diverse type of unions people had could not be attributed to Islam which had no penetration outside the coast in my countryWas your grandfather Muslim? If not, then what specific tradition does/did he follow which allows it?
I get my info from Cheikh Anta Diop. Posted in a thread about this topic some time ago. He argues that polygamy was rarely practiced and only gained more widespread acceptance after the Islamic Conquests across the continent and proved it by various streams of evidence: pottery, religious traditions, iconography, artwork, etc. So, even if you have an ancestor that practiced it, that does not mean the whole continent or even a significant proportion of his peers viewed it as 'normal' or desirable.......just legal.
