ADINKRA
Adinkra symbols were first used as decorative elements in one of the most highly valued, hand-printed and hand-embroidered cloths of West Africa. The fabrics' origin is traced to the Asante of Ghana and the Gyaman of Cote' d'lvoire (Ivory Coast). However, the production and use of Adinkra cloth has come to be more associated with the Asante than any other ethnic group. Around the 19th Century, the Asante developed their unique art of printing Adinkra cloth. Traditionally, the cloth was used exclusively by royalty and spiritual leaders for very important sacred ceremonies and rituals.

Adinkra symbolism is closely related to Asanté cosmology. The Asanté believe the world was created by Nyame (God). The unseen world, an extension of the visible world, is inhabited by a family of ancestors who serve as mediators between Nyame and the living. Because of their powerful and illustrative qualities, the symbols are stamped on cloth that is worn during serious ceremonies, including funerals. The symbols, their use and placement on a cloth or other object, convey not only a graphical design but also an additional literary interpretation to the object.
