Discover answers to life's questions using the Ifa Oracle -- an ancient African divination tool and the spiritual foundation for Candomble, Santeria, and Vodun. Compared by Henry Louis Gates Jr, to the Homeric epics, the Bible, and the Koran, the Ifa Oracle stands as 'a monument to human imagination, poetry, and will'.
