The Dahomean religion was practiced by the Fon people of the Dahomey Kingdom. The kingdom existed until 1898 in what is now the country of Benin. People taken from Dahomey to the Caribbean used elements of the religion to form Haitian Vodou and other African diasporic religions.[1]
It has been suggested that this article be merged into West African Vodún. (Discuss) Proposed since December 2025. |
