its an african religion,
The Yoruba people live in Southwest Nigeria and Benin. They have developed a variety of different artistic forms including pottery, weaving, beadwork, metalwork, and mask making. Most artwork is made to honor the gods and ancestors and since there are more then 401 known gods to the Yoruba there is much sculpture and artwork made. Because of the vastness in the number of gods, the Yoruba have been compared to the ancient Greeks in the amount of gods and in the similarities between the structures of the gods.

Yoruba is actually the name of an ethnic group in Nigeria.
The language and religion of the Yoruba are also referred to as Yoruba. Most people use "Yoruba" to refer to the people, and "Yoruba language" or "Yoruba religion" to specify the other two possibilities.

ancient mith from Tahiti, clears the way to crabs, and helps seamen discover true love. She sings to sea, and awaits lovers all over. She is the goddess of virtue sorrounded by nacar (sea shell). She is not a nimph or nereid, but she does relate to their kind essences.

I believe it is a language or a group of people from Africa. I am sure if you google this word you will have more information than you know what to do with.
