Agnam Thiodaye

Agnam Thiodaye is a village in the Matam department in the north-east of Senegal.

The word thiodaye comes from the verbal group tiode ndo which means "go there" or "live there."

They moved to settle in the bottom of the current village, near the Walo (fonde amadou tall) but at that place there were stinging ants which could cause death.

That is when a man passing by told them tiode nd ndo (live in the middle), that is to say between the Diéri (kadiel mbay toulay) and the Walo (fonde amadou tall) and so the word Thiodaye was created.

[2] The village is part of the rural community of Agnam Civol in the Matam region.
