ON THE COVER
The Yoruba king, Odun Oba Ila Orangun, wearing his
bead-decorated crown topped with an egret, which
portrays orderliness and purity. The crown is studded with other bird
figures. They are the "elders," symbolizing the power of the royal ancestors to counter the
force of witches. Credit: John Pemberton.
