The 17 contributors to Òsun across the Waters delineate the special dimensions of Òsun religion as it appears through multiple disciplines in multiple cultural contexts. Tracking Òsun traditions takes us across the waters and back again. These traditions continue to develop as they flow and return from their sources in Africa and the Americas.
