In the Yoruba pantheon, Orunmila is the deity "orisa" that is consulted in case of problems through divination ifà . This type of sculpture with a cup containing sacred palm nuts was used in divination rites. Focused on the veneration of its gods, or orisà, the religion Yoruba relies on artistic sculptures with coded messages ( aroko). They are designed by sculptors at the request of followers, soothsayers and their customers. These spirits are supposed to intercede with the supreme god Olodumare.
