Datasets and Resources Used in Version 1.0

BODE Oracle prides itself on the depth and authenticity of the datasets used to support our divination services. In Version 1.0, we've drawn from the following rich sources:

Family Dataset

As the new Generation head of the Atolagbe's family and a descendant of the OLOBA family, our family's history, lineage and my late father teachings provide a solid foundation for the wisdom and teachings within BODE Oracle. 

We have utilized traditional knowledge passed down through generations of the Atolagbe family, including contributions from:

- The Atolagbe Family, Ajase-Ipo, Kwara State


- Dr. Olabode I. Atolagbe (My Late Father)


- Alhaji Ilyas Atolagbe: My Uncle


- Alhaji Sanni Atolagbe: (My Great-Great-Grandfather)


- Late Alhaji Abdul Kareem Atolagbe (Judge): (My Grandfather)


- The Oloba Family, Esiwo of Sanmora, Kwara State.

Friends of the Atolagbe Family Dataset

This includes a collection of traditional knowledge, charms, sacrifices and medicines that have been preserved by friends of the family, dating back to the 18th century and continuing to the present day.

Research Papers and Online Resources

In addition to family knowledge, we have also utilized academic and spiritual research from the following sources:

- African Traditional Religions: Ifa: [https://atla.libguides.com/OER_Ifa]

- Dr. Will Coleman – Associate Professor at the Interdenominational Theological Center
