Outline of proposed changes

[edit]

I edited a portion under the Nigeria Section to add source 3 (7 in article) to round out the information.

Ṣàngó is viewed as the most powerful and feared of the orisha pantheon and is often described in two differing narratives.[1] In the first narrative, Ṣàngó casts a "thunderstone" to earth, which creates thunder and lightning, to anyone who offends him. Worshippers in Yorubaland in Nigeria do not eat cowpea because they believe that the wrath of the god of thunder and lightning would descend on them.[2] In the second narrative, Ṣàngó is gifted with the ability to breathe fire and smoke through his nostrils and is known for being angered by his quarrelsome wives. These narratives also encapsulate the virility, bravery, and governance of Ṣàngó.[1] While he was feared for tyranny and destructive powers, he was also highly revered for his bravery, fairness, and tremendous powers.
