According to Igbo custom, twins are put in earthenware pots and throw away in the forest because the Igbo custom is that if twins were born they would be considered evil.

The Igbo people are African people from Nigeria. In Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, we learn about the culture of this people. Besided, among the cultural practices he mentions, we learn about the birth of twins.

Twins were believed to be supernatural beings that could bring tragedy to the community.

Answer:Intimate space

Explanation:Intimate space refers to a Bublé that surround you up to about 18 inches from your physical body , this is a space which can only be occupied by those who are very close to you for example your family , romantic partner and friends. This is a space in which you are able to even touch the person because it is like a foot away from you and you are comfortable enough with the people who are in this bubble that you wouldn't mind them touched by you .

However if you are in a public place which is crowded it is very likely that people will invade this space and get into your bubble.
