Ogun's iron forge produced the Oshe, Shango's sacred double-headed axe. The weapon of thunder was born from the craft of iron, linking Shango's power inextricably to Ogun's metallurgy.
The Oshe is Shango's primary ritual weapon and symbol of royal power. When carried by priests possessed by Shango, the double-headed axe becomes an extension of the thunder god's will, channeling his lightning and justice.
