This book fills a gap in Yorùbá history and religion to provide an extensive analysis of two deities: O?bà tálá and Olókun. 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.
