Eshu 12" Statue

Eshu—also known as Elegba or Legba—is one of the most recognizable oriṣas (gods) of the Yoruba pantheon. A complex god with many facets and roles, he is best known as the trickster god and the god of chance, unpredictability, and accidents. However, he is also a messenger god, a master of languages, and a guardian of crossroads.
