A Dictionary of African Mythology
Harold Scheub
400 entries

This collection of hundreds of fascinating, mysterious, and revealing tales captures the immense sweep and diversity of African mythology.
Stories are arranged alphabetically, and touch on virtually every aspect of religious belief: gods and goddesses, epic heroes and divine tricksters, along with epics of the world's origins, the struggle between the human and the divine, and much more. Entries cover the entire continent, from the mouth of the Nile to the shores of the Cape of Good Hope, including North African as well as sub-Saharan cultures.
Here, for example, is the tale of Abu Zayd (from the Bani Hilal of Tunisia), an epic hero who battles a jinni; and here too is a myth of how the moon and the toad created the first man and woman, from the Soko of Congo. Each story is retold, and information is provided about the respective belief system, the main characters, and related stories or variants. This magnificent collection not only provides hundreds of fascinating myths, but also recaptures their cultural contexts, in which story and storyteller, tradition and performance, all merge.
Harold Scheub is Professor of African Languages and Literature at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He has spent ten years researching and teaching in Africa, and is the author of a number of books, including

Recent Up a category A Dictionary of African Mythology Harold Scheub provides a collection of 400 stories about the religious beliefs of Africans, arranged alphabetically. Yoruba Gods Southwestern Nigerian traditional religion focuses on a pantheon called orisha . The gods (numbering between 201-601) came down to populate the earth. Some of them are primordial, others are heroes added into the pantheon; still others are natural phenomena. Yoruba Religion and Myth The religion of the Yoruba may be described as "'diffused monotheism'; a single omnipotent creator-god rules over the universe, along with several hundred lower gods, each with a specific domain of rule."
