The Ion Hewn| Urban Adinkra | The Crossed Swords
Introduction: The warrior uses his sword to swear to both the heavens and earth that he will forever remain loyal to his state and religion. Upon retiring he is laid to rest upon his sword, often decorated with abstract patterns and animal symbols.
Description: The Crossed Swords medal is a cast replica of the Akofena Adinkra symbol. This particular symbol signifies state authority, legalities and rulership. Akofena is not only signs of the valor and courage representative of exemplary warriors but they are also used in political and religious ceremonies to symbolize the states power and that they recognize the warriors loyalty.
Other Products: This medal was designed in union with The Blacksun Bloodmoon graphic novel series character Adam Black. The Boutique Graven offers an Urban Adinkra medal for each of the thirteen main characters from the Blacksun Bloodmoon graphic novel series.
Mr.Adam Black’s Dossier: Adam Black has a knack for getting into tight places unseen, unheard and underestimated. The last man to call, his work is thorough and everlasting. War, weapons of war, the philosophies of war and military tactics will be all you find if ever you were to have the displeasure of looking into the windows of his soul. Though he would prefer peace, tranquility, loyalty and patience, man seldom receive what he wants and often attains what he needs. You should run. Adam is often in fellowship with Delilah.
Facts about Adinkra: Dominating The Gold Coast: In the seventeenth century the Ashante people settled in the area between Lake Bonumtwi and the northern forest. They emerged as the Akan’s most dominant culture and the prevalent ethnic group. Osei Tutu then emerged from the Ashanti people to united them under one government and they were organized under Chief Oti Akenten to create their own fighting force [1630-1660]. This union was called the Asante Confederation of the Ashante Nation.
