KIANDA // ANGOLAN GODDESS OF THE SEA
“She is a goddess of the sea, of the waters, and a protector of fishermen in traditional Angolan culture. Kianda was traditionally worshipped by throwing offerings such as food and clothing into the sea. Every year the Luanda Island Feast is held to honor the deity. The mosasaur Prognathodon kianda, found in Angola, was named after her.”
