The Gods of Haiti, also called the Loa, are a group of deities worshipped in the Caribbean nation of Haiti and nearby locations by practitioners of the African diasporic religion of Vodou.
History
A lot of the Loa identities come from deities formed in the West African traditional regions, like the Yoruba, even sharing the same deities, like Ogun.
