Epic Warrior WomenSeason 1, Episode 3 - Africa's Amazons

The Agooji of West Africa were the terrifying all-female fighting force of the Kingdom of Dahomey, a small but powerful West African kingdom in modern day Benin that steadily expanded from the 17th Century against the much larger Asante and Yoruba Kingdoms. Dahomey was feared for its annual slave raids deep into its neighbour’s territories, and the ruthlessness of their women warriors.
