An app by Kọ́lá Abímbọ́lá
Meet the Òrìṣà
An encyclopedia of the Òrìṣà of the Ìṣẹ̀ṣe tradition: who each one is, what they govern, how they are saluted and fed, and where the knowledge comes from.
Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play
Built on sources
A scholar's foundation
Its core is the glossary of major Yorùbá divinities by Wándé Abímbọ́lá and Kọ́lá Abímbọ́lá.
Every entry cited
Each entry lists its sources, so you can see what is documented and where.
Nigerian tradition first
Diaspora practice is respected and labelled as such, never mixed into accounts of Yorùbá land.
