Makoma of folk lore

Latest comment: 13 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Presumably the band chose the name 'Makoma' after the hero Makoma ("the Greater") from oral folk lore from the region that is now part of Zimbabwe. Makoma's story is featured in Mike Mignola's Hellboy series. http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/lfb/or/orfb03.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Orange_Fairy_Book#Orange_Fairy_Book_.281906.29 http://www.muuta.net/SynoGH/HellboyMakoma.html .Penelope Gordon (talk) 20:59, 7 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
