ON THE COVER
Statue of Eshu, Orisha of communications, in front of
the main post office in Salvador, capital of the state of
Bahia, Brazil. Eshu is a significant power in the traditional Yoruba pantheon. Without his divine assistance
no communication may take place. He is one of the
major deities recognized in candomble, Shango, Santeria, and other forms of Yoruba-based religion practriced in the Americas (Photo by Sheila S. Walker).
