The True Origins of the Adinkra symbols. The Adinkra symbols originated from Bono Kingdom, in Bono GYAAMAN of Ghana and Partly the Ovory coast. WHO ARE THE PEOPLE OF GYAAMAN? They’re BONO AKAN people, living in both GHANA AND IVORY COAST (BONTOUKU,IVORY COAST/ BONO AND BONO EAST OF GHANA) Various aspects of Akan culture stem from the Bono state, including the umbrella used for the kings, the swords of the nation (Akofena), the royal stools, goldsmithing, blacksmithing, Kente Cloth weaving, the chief of Yefri, NKORANZA NORTH, Bono east region of Ghana, informed the then Asante king at the time of a group of people in Bontouku (Bonos) who were skilful in cloth weaving and subsequently sent some Asantes to learn from them. Everyone must remember there was a Bono akan kingdom over 400 years before the Asante kingdom was formed. With that in mind most of the cultural dressings,, such as the Kente, Adinkra symbols, Fontomfrom drums are all originated from Bono Akan people. NANA KOJO ADINKRA was a Bono King and he invented the symbols. If you want the true history search m/ watch SUMAHENE , who’s a descendant of King Adinkra. Go to the Bono areas like Takyiman, Dormaa and Gyaman for the authentic history. After the Bono kingdom came the Denkyira Kingdom (Denkyira or Adewu came from Bono Nkyiraa), the Asante kingdom later emerged after waging war to free themselves from Denkyira. Hence all the Akan kingdoms were greatly influenced by the Bono Kingdom.
