24592: Wilcken (request): Ezili Danto and Djouba
Lois E. Wilcken <makandal-ny@juno.com>
Can anyone shed light on the roots of the Djouba nation in Vodou?
Researchers place Djouba variously in the Rada or Petwo branches--when
they place it at all.
Is the "Dantò" in Èzili Dantò derived from Zandò? And is Zandò truly a
fongbe term for spirits that travel in the night?
