The 460 divinities came down to fight Eshú, but because they refused to give him the goat, they arrived already under his sway and fighting among themselves; half of them stayed behind in heaven. That is how Ogbe Ogunda earned the name Ogbe Oligun.
In the second dwelling of the earth, God had created 460 divinities. The earth had practically become Eshú's kingdom, and the divinities went for divination in order to rescue it. They were told to give a goat to Eshú and to pray all their heads together with a ram, so they would not end up contradicting each other and fighting.
They were glad to pray their heads, but they refused to give the goat to Eshú, who was the very enemy they were coming to fight. Before they had even finished taking their names to go out into the world, Eshú had already worked on the minds of some of them.
A fight broke out, and in the end half of them refused to go with the others; half stayed in heaven and the other half came into the world, already under Eshú's sway before they set out. That is how Ogbe Ogunda earned the name Ogbe Oligun. Because of this Ifá, one serves outside the house and gives a ram to Ifá and a goat to Eshú, so as not to catch an infectious disease.
