Kongo Mythology Hub

Kongo mythology is the belief of the KiKongo speaking peoples. The faith bases itself in the idea of a main creator god named Nzami Mpungu who made the world and spirits who inhabit it. Priestly doctors known as Ngana try to heal followers' minds and bodies. The universe is split between two worlds, one of the living (nza yayi) and a world of the dead (nsi a bafwa), which are split by a body of water.
