This is a list of the independent Ogisos (Kings) of Igodomigodo, which was to become the Benin Empire, from 40 BCE to 1100 CE. The dating is based on the recollection made by Daryl Peavy of the oral traditions of the Edo people. The Ogiso were assisted by seven nobles called the "Uzama". During the reign of ogiso, edo lands were called Igodomigodo and they had administrative centers or capitals at Ubinu which was later called Benin City. Community autonomy was given to each community by the Ogiso during their reign.
