And Anderson (loc. cit.: 105) continues: the \"Ijo hold that human beings befriend, marry, and even bear children with nature spirits while awaiting birth in the creator's realm. These spirits may later follow their human friends or family members to earth in order to demand offerings or images. [...] Although Ijo say bush spirits resemble them more closely than water spirits, they often describe them as ugly, unkempt creatures.
