Book Overview

African Ophiolatry is a book written by Joseph J. Williams that explores the traditional African beliefs and practices surrounding snakes. The book delves into the role of snakes in African mythology, religion, and culture, and provides an in-depth analysis of the various ways in which snakes are venerated and feared across the continent. Williams draws on a wide range of sources, including oral traditions, religious texts, and archaeological evidence, to paint a rich and complex picture of the role of snakes in African society. The book is an important contribution to the study of African religion and culture, and will be of interest to scholars and general readers alike.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Voodoos and Obeahs: Phases of West India Witchcraft, by Joseph J.
