Answer:
Traditional Ashanti symbols are stamped and patterned on Adinkra cloth. Each symbol has a distinct meaning. They divide the cloth into squares by drawing lines on it with the dye. They then carve symbols into calabash gourds, dip them in dye, and stamp the symbols onto fabric. The adinkra symbols represent popular proverbs and maxims, historical events, specific attitudes or behavior related to depicted figures, or concepts unique to abstract shapes. It's one of several traditional cloths made in the area.
