Several forms of cowrie-shell divination are distributed broadly throughout West Africa. While there are many variants using from eight to 21 cowrie shells, West African-derived forms most commonly use 16 cowrie shells on a prepared table or on a mat on the ground, interpreting the patterns that result which are known as Odu. Before casting the shells, the priest/priestess invokes and salutes the Orishas, and puts questions to them. The Orishas answer the questions by influencing the way the shells fall on the table.
Delmer M. Brown and Ichiro Ishida (University of California Press, 1979) Delmer Myers Brown, Ichirō Ishida - 1979 Page 380 "One of the variant titles for both the Eiga and the Ōkagami is "Succession Tales" (Yotsugi no monogatari) . ... The Ōkagami was also more deeply influenced than the Eiga by a growing conviction that the age of Final Law had begun in 1052." In the tale, the writer listens to a conversation mainly led by a 190-year-old man, Ōyake no Yotsugi (大宅世継, literally "world-successor"), who recalls the past. A 180-year-old man, Natsuyama no Shigeki (夏山繁樹), adds comments and a young samurai puts questions to these two elders.
