In "Things Fall Apart," one religious practice of the people of Umuofia is the practice of animal sacrifice.
They describe sacrificing a rooster before planting crops. The sacrifice is dedicated to Ani, the owner of all land. A rooster is also sacrificed to Ifejioku, the god of yams.
This practice is culturally significant because the sacrifice is meant to ensure good crops. Ultimately, these sacrifices ensure the health of the village, since if the crops fail, the villagers will be without a large part of their food supply. Since the crops are so essential to the villagers' health, the sacrifice has a great cultural significance.
