Shango is the the god of thunder and the ancestor of the Yoruba people of Nigeria. He is the son of Yemaja the mother goddess and protector of birth. As the legendary fourth king of the ancient kingdom of Oyo, Shango's rule was marked by capricious use of power. The orisha Shango is portrayed with a double axe on his head (the symbol of thunder.) In one account regarding the oshe shango, the female figure who balances the ax, the sign of Shango's power is equated with the "caprice and creative experience of human sexuality." Both of the Shangos have been used in ritual practice and are well over 40 years of age. Signs of wear are evident. The left selection measures 17 inches tall x 4 1/2 inches wide.
