Need to Rename/Make More Inclusive of Motherland Origins[edit]

I appreciate the fact that someone has created a page on the reading of the year. This is an ancient tradition that is a critical part in this tradition. However, the tone of the article didn't seem all that inclusive of the origins of the reading of the year. Ultimately, the highest reading would most likely come from Oketase in Ile-Ife. Also, in Nigeria, since they follow the traditional character for Orisha worship, their reading of the year would occur in early June at the beginning of their calendar.

Also, something that needs to be explained is the significance of the odu to the religion. Since I am about half-way fluent in Spanish, I can see how the word "letra" could coordinate with "odu", but most non-adherents would not be able to.

Despite these comments, I am very appreciative of your efforts to improve the amount of reliable information on Wikipedia about our ancient tradition.
