Ikenga

By Crusader1307

The Igbo of Nigeria (Africa) have a Deity known as ''Ikenga''. A ''Spirit God'' which is said to inhabit hand-carved wooden Figures (akin to ''Spirit Houses'') Ikenga was key to control of One's Life and living a ''moral and honest'' Life. He was kept in the Hut of only the wealthy Class of Igbo society, and traditionally by Women. Inkenga was also known as ''The Horned One''.
