AFRICAN Mythology: Forgotten Gods and Sacred Practices of the Ancient World

Step into a world where gods walk with humanity, storms speak with purpose, and rivers hold the power of life itself.

Few people know that long before Christianity and Islam shaped Africa, powerful spiritual systems already flourished systems that explained creation, guided justice, and carried communities through centuries of struggle and triumph. These myths were never lost. They survived across oceans, hidden in rituals, songs, and sacred practices that remain alive today.

In African Mythology: Forgotten Gods and Sacred Practices of the Ancient World, Sarah Lambert brings the Orishas to life in vivid detail. From Shango's thunder to Oshun's sweet waters, from Obatala's wisdom to Yemoja's nurturing embrace, these stories reveal not only the power of ancient gods but also the resilience of the people who carried them through slavery, diaspora, and oppression.

What you're about to discover will change how you see ancestry, spirituality, and even yourself. Inside, you will uncover: The hidden truth behind Africa's supreme creator, OlodumareHow Orunmila's wisdom shaped the destiny of nationsWhy the trickster Eshu remains central to choice and transformationThe survival of Yoruba traditions in Santer a, Candombl , and VodouThe eternal role of ancestors in guiding, protecting, and empowering communities
This is not just mythology it is a living legacy. A guide for seekers of wisdom, lovers of history, and anyone ready to reconnect with the roots of African spirituality.
