Information request: Oráculo Divinatório de Ngombo - Ngombo Divination Oracle
Hi everyone,
I am writing this post to know if you were aware of any research, article and/or book about the 'Oráculo Divinatório de Ngombo', a divination practice of the cult of Nkuku a Lunga (the Bantu God of Divination of the Angola and Kongo tradition) carried by the Nganga-a-Ngombo priests.
What I know so far is that the oracle consists on the divination made through the interpretation of 74 pieces (or tupele), among which the so-called 'fruto de tombe' decides the general meaning of the tupele.
Could anyone recommend also some author/scholar who studied the Bantu pantheon to understand better the figure of Nkuku a Lunga?
It would be extremely helpful if I could find some more consistent information about this.
Thank you very much for reading this post.
Vincenzo
