In this portion of a manuscript chapter written by Professor Matory he speaks of crowns, fly whisks, and how royalism of the gods and of the processes of how they are worshiped, are demonstrated in the different \u00a0Santer\u00eda\/Ocha, Brazilian Candombl\u00e9, and other Yoruba-Atlantic religions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Professor Matory has an interesting perspective on this, he looks these religions in both an academic way but also from the way of a practitioner of the religion. The goal of the work is to get the reader to look at the similarities between these Yoruba-Atlantic religions on the topics of royalism and the different types of crowns and other objects that aid in the worshiping of the gods. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Flores-Pen\u0303a, Ysamur, and Roberta J.

Jackson: University Press of Mississippi.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This book was also recommended to me by Professor Brennan for my research. The book narrated by a seamstress from the Santer\u00eda religion who explains how the garments and crowns worn by initiates into the priest or priestess hood are created and then meaning that is behind the choice in fabric or beading that the seamstress chooses to use. As well as this, the Santer\u00eda practitioner speaks of the different types of altars for orisha worship and what kind of work goes into them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The author is writing this from the position of an actual practitioner of the religion trying to educate the public on the process that go into being able to properly worship the gods in a respectful and appropriate way, and the traditions behind them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Gordon, Jacob U. 1979. \u201cYoruba Cosmology and Culture in Brazil.\u201d <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Journal of Black Studies<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> 9 (4): 231\u201344. doi:10.1177\/002193477900900406.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I found this article through JSTOR by searching the various spellings for the yemoya.
