Based on historical evidence, the very earliest Dahomey Amazons made their living through "mistresses to the king."

  • This is evident in the fact they were originally called "ahosi" in the native language which means the King's wives.

  • History has it that King Ghezo had many wives that runs into hundreds, and that is where he started recruiting them around the 19th century.

  • Dahomey Amazons are female soldiers of Fon origin who fought in defense of Dahomey.
