Aban Adinkra Symbols Necklace

The Aban emblem is a drawing of a castle or other type of stronghold. It embodies qualities of power, reliability, and authority. During times of conflict, a fortress was seen as a safe haven and a place of protection in the Akan culture. Therefore, the symbol embodies not only the concept of safety and security, but also the strength and power necessary to protect not only oneself, but also one's community.
