Legend has it that it is really the corpse of Osun, one of the wives of the third Oyo Alaafin, Sango. Sango in addition to being the Yoruba god of Thunder was descended from Oduduwa, one of the messengers of Olodumare, the creator.
It is said that Olodumare had originally sent Obatala with the special mission to create humanity. He got drunk and forgot his duty which Oduduwa took over. He climbed down a length of rope to present day Ile Ife, at the time it was covered with water. He dumped his gourd of earth on the waters and it was spread all over the earth by the Cock he brought along. He planted a kennel from which the first humans sprung.
Once upon a time, time, time. In Fante land, dwelled a man called Anansi. Anansi through some dastardly means no doubt owned all the wisdom in the world. In that time, when lizards were in ones and twos and the land of spirit and man was not yet split, we were not the confident species we are now.
