Adefunmi

Oba Efuntola Oseijeman Adelabu Adefunmi (born Walter Eugene King, 5 October 1928 – 11 February 2005) was an African-American initiated into the priesthood of the Yoruba religion.
King was born in Detroit, Michigan. He grew up with an interest in African culture and began African studies at the age of 16. King left the Baptist faith that he had been baptized into at the age of 12. At the age of 20, King traveled to Haiti in 1954 to study Vodou and, in 1955, to Europe and North Africa, often as a part of the Katherine Dunham Dance Company. Finally, in 1959 just before the Cuban revolution, he traveled to the Matanzas region of Cuba to be initiated into the Yoruba priesthood of Obatala, where he was named Efuntola Oseijeman Adefunmi. ''Efuntola'' means "the whiteness (of Obatala) is as good as wealth (or honor)." ''Adefunmi'' means "the crown has given me this (child)."
Upon his return to the United States, he founded the ''Order of the Damballah Hwedo'', then the ''Shango Temple'', and later incorporated the ''African Theological Archministry''. That organization would come to be called the ''Yoruba Temple''. In 1970, King created the Oyotunji Village in Beaufort County, South Carolina.
King's Black Nationalist stance drew large criticism from within the ranks of the Cuban Santería priests because of his strident opposition to certain aspects of their religion.
