Obosom

The name of this series, Obosom, was quoted in one of writer Robert Graves’ essays, on wich he mentioned: “Obosom was a visible manifestation of the Kra or vital force derived from the moon and enjoyed a limited part of goddess moon full power.” Under the name of Obosom some Africans tribes named certain natural world deities associated with the moon, which could be extrapolated to western culture through virgins, which inmany cases have been merged with pre-Christians beliefs linking with landscapes, lakes, rivers, mountains or natural events.
