Ananse and His New Wife is a fun narrated Akan tale in which I will try to get you more acquainted with the popular Adinkra symbols.

Now Adinkra symbols are symbols that represent certain concepts and/or ideas, which were created by the Akans of Ghana and also by the Gyaman of Côte D’Ivoire in the early 1800’s for communication purposes.
