- W2769480565 abstract "In Côte d’Ivoire, initiated hunters called dozos organize their hunting and other activities through ritual sacrifices. Such offerings are especially important for placating a dead dozo’s spirit at his funeral. The dead man expects living dozos to offer game meat to his family as he once did; otherwise he may ruin his family’s harvest, make their livestock ill, and spoil the hunt out of spite. Hunting is therefore a process of social reciprocity that dozos sustain by emulating the former generosity of dead colleagues. Living dozos communicate regularly with the dead in order to do so. But because the dead are disembodied and cannot speak human language, they send dreams or use ritual divination to convey their intentions. Living dozos then translate these desires into models for dozo action. At their initiations, for example, dozos make offerings to the spirit of the first dozo, Manimory, promising to follow his moral code in exchange for his protection in the forest. Without invoking the dead, no such protection is possible. Whereas theologians may focus on God’s difference from humanity, and religion scholars may reduce notions of spirituality to ideology, dozos commune with the dead through stories, dreams, and rituals to embody the moral conduct dead dozos once personified, making dozo spirits as real as the dozos who invoke them. Far from God’s idealized being or an ideology grounded in mere “belief,” the ineffability of dozo spirits is near and pragmatic, the result of practical discernment." @default.
