The oracle that governed three kingdoms - first time in English.Bernard Maupoil spent two years in Dahomey, 1934 to 1936, sitting with the bokonô, the Fa divination priests, documenting the complete oracle system from the inside. He recorded the sixteen sacred Dun signs with all their messages and legends, the full Vodun pantheon, the stages of initiation, and the political role of Fa in the royal courts of Allada, Abomey, and Porto-Novo.La Géomancie à l’ancienne Côte des Esclaves (1943) has stood for eighty years as the most complete account of the Fon oracle ever written, and has stayed locked in French. This is the complete text in English, with a translator’s introduction placing the Fon tradition beside its Yoruba source and cross-referencing every Dun sign with its Odu Ifá counterpart.Maupoil Fa Library. Translated and introduced by Babalawo Olodu Ifadahunsi Egundiran Obafemi Alladahanou.
