The Yoruba Religion, Chrislam and Selected Syncretisms
Original language description
The paper discusses the Yoruba religion and Nigerian syncretisms, in particular, the syncretism of the Yoruba religion and Chrislam. Not only the Yoruba religion, but also other indigenous African religions in the West and Central African regions - such as Vodun, Juju, Thron, or Bwiti - have seen increased interest among Africans, including African Muslims and Christians, in the recent years of their revival. The primary objective of the paper is to present the Yoruba religion - the influence of which is gradually growing in Nigeria - and the syncretism of the Yoruba religion with Chrislam. The secondary objective is to map interfaith relations in contemporary Nigeria. The topic is approached using the method of my own field research, which took place in Africa between 2001 and 2019, in the total length of three years, supported by the comparison of applicable literature.
