Oggue

Oggue is the Orisha of horned animals and herds. It is the third in the trilogy and Orisha Oko Oke. Shango live within or adjacent to a fryer plane painted red and white.

It is represented by two pots of beef or two horns, which eventually are loaded and sealed. No one knows for sure where it comes from their religion, but could come from Ibadan. Its name comes from Ogue Yorùbá (horn, ostentation). In antiquity its foundation was delivered with a single horn, a SEATO, snails and other attributes.

No seat is Orisha. He devotes only dancing but not mounted, it placed the index fingers dance on the head like horns. It was like offering and sacrifices to Shango and has its own Ewes. Its color is the same as Shango.
