Anansie the Spider comes to mind. And they have their own zombies.Has an African ever invented a mythical creature? As far as I know they only ever got as far as ghosts and shit.
Honestly, I wouldn't blame them if they missed out on monster making. When you have actual lions and elephants fucking your shit up, you don't need to imagine manticores and giants.
Here's something crazy. African languages don't have names for individual flowers. Roses, daisies, daffodils, goldenrod, it's all just 'flower' with no interest beyond that.
Edit: @NoReturn That's so cool! Love that kind of stuff. Why can't we hear about cool shit like that?
