In Yoruba mythology, Egungun-Oyá is a goddess of divination. “Egungun” refers to the collective spirits of the ancestral dead.
Egungun is a part of the Yoruba pantheon of divinities. The Yoruba religious system is sometimes referred to as the ‘Yoruba Religion’ or simply ‘Orisa Worship’.
In the tradition of Orisa and ancestor worship, the Egungun represents the “collective spirit” of the ancestors. Ancestor worship or reverence is everywhere in traditional Africa. Egungun is a part of this worship.

( CINEMA 4D is a commercial, cross-platform, high-end 3-D graphics application ).
Thanks for stopping by.
