Shango (Xangô, Changó, Sango) ist der in der Religion der Yoruba und den darauf beruhenden afroamerikanischen Religionen der wohl populärste Orisha (Gott). Er ist himmlischer Vater, Donnergott und Ahne der Yoruba. In der karibischen Lukumí-Religion gilt Shango als religiöse Hauptgestalt, der die Oyo-Yoruba Westafrikas repräsentiert.
