Shango
In the Yorùbá religion, Ṣàngó ( also spelled, Sango or Shango, often known as Xangô or Changó in Latin America and the Caribbean, and also known as Jakuta) (from '=shan, 'to strike') is perhaps one of the most popular Orisha; also known as the god of fire, lightning and thunder. Shango is historically a royal ancestor of the Yoruba as he was the third king of the Oyo Kingdom prior to his posthumous deification. In the Lukumí (Olokun mi = "my dear one") religion of the Caribbean, Shango is considered the center point of the religion as he represents the Oyo people of West Africa, the symbolic ancestors of the adherents of the faith. All the major initiation ceremonies (as performed in Cuba, Puerto Rico and Venezuela for the last few hundred years) are based on the traditional Shango ceremony of Ancient Oyo. This ceremony survived the Middle Passage and is considered to be the most complete to have arrived on Western shores. This variation of the Yoruba initiation ceremony became the basis of all Orisha initiations in the West

Chango
Shango
Shango (Xango, Changó) ist der in der Religion der Yoruba und den darauf beruhenden afroamerikanischen Religionen der wohl populärste Orisha (Göttergeist). Er ist himmlischer Vater, Donnergott und Ahne der Yoruba. In der karibischen Lukumí-Religion (O lukumi = „mein Freund“), gilt Shango als religiöse Hauptgestalt, der das Oyo-Volk Westafrikas repräsentiert. Das Königreich Oyo wurde erobert, geplündert und seine Bewohner als Sklaven in Ketten in die Karibik und nach Brasilien verschleppt. Alle wesentlichen Initiationsriten (wie sie in den letzten Jahrhunderten in Kuba, Puerto Rico oder Venezuela gefeiert wurden) basieren auf der traditionellen Xango-Zeremonie der alten Oyo. Dieser Brauch überstand die atlantische Passage und gilt als in vollständiger Gestalt an der amerikanischen Küste überliefert. Diese Art der Yoruba-Initiation wurde die Grundlage aller Orisha Initiationen im westlich des Atlantik.

Sango (divinità vuduista)
Shango per la popolazione africana Yoruba, è la divinità del tuono e delle tempeste.
Originariamente sovrano della terra , Shango fu divinizzato dopo essere fuggito dai nemici ed essersi impiccato ad un albero. I suoi seguaci pregarono che il fuoco distruggesse i suoi avversari e quando il fuoco arrivò effettivamente ai nemici di Shango, si convinsero che egli era veramente asceso al cielo, diventando una divinità.
