Question; why do people insist on making African religions something other than African or having origins other than purely African??? Africa IS THE CRADLE of all civilization. It did not need anyone's help, consent or permission to be so. If anything, most (if not all) religions came from Africa and evolved into what they are today, not the other way around.

And point of order, Legba = Elegbara = Lisah, all AFRICAN deities, they have NOTHING to do with any Hebrew/Jewish tribes. Though there are many Jewish practitioners of Vodou (hone ak respete); Vodou is an AFRICAN based spiritual path. Thank you and thank you Exu6 for posting this; ache abure!

Well, some things go around to euro and caribe and back, like Mami Wata. You can go back in time and find her earlier in Africa, by African name and not all the traders' Barbie, if you like. At the top of the Fon-Ewe pantheon are persons/narratives not much in practical experience in the usual worship-dances-drums-songs but sounding familiar or shared with other religions though more of a record than experiential or familiar.

I thought Legba was a loa and Lisa came before Legba and then Lisa would be one of two or three who sounds like a person in many religions. Fon-Ewe beliefs are easy to find here on internet. Legba is not a Greek or Roman deity but his stories sound like those stories. Some stories change, like Mami Wata, and some don't, they are records. Lisa sounds like more of a record than an evolving practical experiential description to be kept relevent.
