Herbal knowledge across two traditions
This volume brings together plant knowledge associated with the Lukumi cuarto de santo and the Yoruba record. Its scope is indicated in the title and description: 101 ewe from the Lukumi tradition and 150 leaves from the Yoruba record, alongside information on owners, Odu, uses, and ofo. Photographs are also included, giving the book a reference-oriented structure that connects named plants with details of their place in these traditions. The subject sits at the intersection of herbal knowledge and African diaspora religious practice.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Adults interested in Lukumi and Yoruba religious traditions
