History
Overview
Buluku is the progenitor of the Vodu, an extra-dimensional race worshiped as gods by the tribes of Africa.
...[1]
He participated in the Council of Godheads as Buluku, and as Ndriananahary[9][6] (his name by the Malagasy-speaking people of Madagascar),[1] of the Razanes.[10] As Ndriananahary, he was also lord of the underworld Iku.[11]
For the Baganda people of the African Great Lakes region, Buluku, as Mukasa, sired their War god Kibuka.[1]
For the Baoulé of West Africa, he was Alouroua and fathered Ghekre, the Gorilla God of Wakanda's Jabari tribe.[1]
Possible appearances in Mbangawi
The Maasai sky god Engai, occasionally manifesting in Mbangawi, may be another name for the creator god Mulungu, one of the alias of Buluku.[4]
16th century
In the 16th century, Dam-Ayido Wede benefited of the Atlantic slave trade usurping his grandfather's role as the Sky Father and creator of the world, as Damballah.[12] Buluku himself became known as Olodumare to the practitioners of Cuban Santeria.[1]Notes
- This deity possibly exist as separate entities for his different names and/or aspects:
- Some gods could be in fact just alternate spellings of his name, like Nyame could also be:
- Nyambe, the Orisha Great Spirit.[6]
- Nyami of the Orishas of Wakanda.[5]
