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.
