Vodún, not voodoo

from AfroMythos: Tellings

Vodún means spirit. It is a living religion of the Fon, Ewe and Aja peoples, a national holiday in Benin, and the root of Haitian Vodou. The pins, the dolls and the zombies came later, from somewhere else. Read it with pictures and sources: https://afromythos.com/journeys/vodun
