摘要

存在主义上，伊博-非洲形而上学围绕着伦理、道德、正义和医学。这种存在状态在他们关于神的本体论的信条中是显而易见的，他们把神的本体论看作是他们生命等级中的一个战略变量，是他们追求理智、负责任、和平生存与共存的关键因素。基于这些前提，本文对这些变量进行了查询，建立了它们之间的对称性。为此，本研究在分析中采用了批判分析和存在主义模型。在那之后，很明显，神的存在和本体论强调了伊博-非洲人的运作模式，从那个位置;显而易见的是，伊博非洲人的集体生活使非洲形而上学成为一种活生生的形而上学，或者我称之为人类学的形而上学。

Ontosophy and anthropologised metaphysics: Revisiting the ontology of deities among the Igbo

Existentially, Igbo-African metaphysics swivels around ethics, morality, justice, and medicine. This state of being is evident in their credo on the ontology of the deities, which they see as a strategic variable in their hierarchy of beings and a critical agent in their quest for sane, responsible, peaceful existence and co- existence. Based on these premises, this paper interrogated these variables to establish the symmetry between them. In doing this, this research employed the critical analytic cum existential model in its analysis. After which, it became palpable that the existence and ontology of the deities accentuates the mode of operation of the Igbo-African and from that position; it was blatant that the communal life of the Igbo-African makes African metaphysics a lived-metaphysics or what I have called anthropologised-metaphysics.
