Akan Goldweights
Goldweights symbolizing proverbs.
http://www.fa.indiana.edu/~conner/akan/proverb.html

Extractions: G oldweights and P roverbs N otes: The knot tied by a wiseman cannot be undone by a fool. The leader's right to his higher position by virtue of his greater wisdom. A square, reef or Hercules knot design is often featured on objects of leadership art. Although the snake does not fly, it has caught the hornbill, whose home is in the sky. Optimism and patience. According to legend, the hornbill was deeply indebted to the snake but did not pay its debts because it reasoned that it could always fly away if the snake tried to catch it. This tactic was successful until it got careless one day and the snake, which had been quietly and patiently for just this opportunity, caught it. How a fish should not be divided. The story associated with this goldweight is of a man who caught a fish and gave the head to his "head" first and older wife, and the rest (the edible part) to his second, younger and favorite wife. The head wife killed herself with grief over the insult, and the chief had his goldsmith make a goldweight in the form of a headless fish as a reminder of the discord that follows an unjust action.

Extractions: Arabic Hausa Swahili Akan ... Tsonga Akan 1 CLASSIFICATION AND WHERE SPOKEN The Akan (Twi, Twi-Fante) dialect cluster belongs to the Central subgroup of the (Volta-) Comoe group, which falls within the New Kwa (Greenberg's Western Kwa) branch of Niger-Congo. It is spoken primarily in southern Ghana but extends into northwestern Côte d'Ivoire. 2 NUMBER OF SPEAKERS WTPR (1982) lists four million speakers. Voegelin and Voegelin (1977) cite two million, a figure attributed to Welmers. 3 DIALECT SITUATION Akan has five main dialects, generally considered mutually intelligible. They are Akyem, Akuapem, Asante, Brong, and Fante. 4 USAGE The 1960 population census of Ghana indicates that about 40 percent of the population are members of Akan-speaking groups. This census gives a larger figure for "Akan," but that includes the entire Central Comoe branch (Stewart, personal communication, 1985). Two periodicals are published in Akan: Nkwantabisa and Akwansosem. Akan radio broadcasts are also heard in Ghana. 5 ORTHOGRAPHIC STATUS Standardized orthographies exist for Asante, Akuapem, and Fante; a unified Akan orthography for these three is nearing completion (Bureau of Ghana Languages project).
