Description Babalawo, Santeria's High Priests is the first in-depth look at Cuban Ifa, as seen through the eyes of an insider
Hidden within the mysterious Afro-Cuban religion of Santeria, also known as Lucumi, there is a deep body of secrets and rituals called Ifa, practised by priests whose title, babalawo, means Father of the Secrets. This book pulls away the veil of secrecy to reveal exactly what Ifa is and how it works, exploring its history, cosmology, Orichas, initiations, mythology, ways of power, offerings, and sacrifices. Join Frank Baba Eyiogbe in this fascinating introduction that discusses the functions of the babalawo, the role of women, and the future of Ifa.
Frank Baba Eyiogbe has been practising Santeria for more than twenty-five years and has attained the highest level of babalawo, Olofista. He has maintained the premier Santeria website, , for more than sixteen years. He has guest lectured at the University of Washington as well as UC Berkeley.
