    01a - Mythical Origins: The Legend of Odùduwà (Part One)
    Apr 9 2023

    Like Romulus and Remus of Roman fame, Queen Dido of Carthage, or Genghis Khan of the Mongols, the Yoruba also believe they all share a common heroic ancestor in the legendary Odùduwà of Ilé-Ifẹ̀. Join me this week, as we explore the earliest origins of this enigmatic figure, whose legend is so pivotal to Yoruba identity.
