Title

Orisa of Courage, Intelligence and Truth.

Son of Yemaya, Lord of lightning, thunder, rain and masculine fertility.

He is smooth-talking, kingly, yet can be shrewd as a con-artist. He wins against the odds and is stimulated by challenge.  The double-headed dance wand headdress (oshe Sango) and double-edged ax symbolize his constant preparedness, and he carries the phallic mortar, or odo, in his right hand.  His animal representations are the black cat, quail and tortoise.
