Summary: A very interesting survey
Review: It's a good collection of information concerning a new initiates expected behaviour and contains information collected from several interviews. Good for a general survey of practices in the Santeria religion.

Summary: The Manuel How to for the Newly Initiate en Santo
Review: Iyawo or Yaguo depending on how you pronounce it, is the novice initiate of the Orisha Religion. An Iyawo is an individual, both male, and female who has gone through the Kariocha Ceremonies and has had the Santo crowned upon the head. During a year the Iyawo is to follow strict rules, wear white, and learn to respect and honor their ruling Orisha with pride and dignity. As a young initiate and a future Babalorisha or Iyalorisha (Priest / Priestess) I highly recommend this book to all Iyawo initiates. The booklet is in Spanish, so it would help immensely if you knew the language. This is the Manuel the How To for the newly crowned initiate, and a must have.
