This book fills a gap in Yorùugrave;báaacute; history and religion to provide an extensive analysis of two deities: O?bàagrave;tálá and Olóoacute;kun. Drawing from oral accounts, chants, folk songs, praise poems, and verses from the Ifá corpus, the authors provide new insights into the worlds of both deities hitherto missing in the literature.
