A DOCUMENTARY HISTORY
Edited by

The Akan, a cultural-linguistic group with
25
million members found predom¬
inantly in present-day Ghana and to a lesser extent Togo and Ivory Coast,
have established a legacy as widely known as their bright
kente
cloth. From
the fourth century on, the Akan created numerous states based largely on
gold production, commerce linked to
Sudanie
Africa and the Mediterranean
world, and an agrarian culture. Attracted by its gold, Europeans established
their West African bases in the region they called the Gold Coast, but before
long, gold was surpassed by the trafficking in African captives to be used in
the overseas European colonies. Ultimately, Europeans established over
40
trading forts along
341
miles of the Akan coastline.
The lessons learned from the rise and fall of numerous Akan states led to
the ascent of the best-known Akan empire, the
Asante
Empire. The Akan have
produced such notables as the pan-African
ist
and Ghana s first president,
Kwame Nkrumah, and Sub-Saharan Africa s first U.N. Secretary-General,
Kofi Annan. This first-of-its-kind collection features a new array of primary
sources that provide fresh and nuanced perspectives on the histories of the
Akan peoples.
Kwasi Konadu,
History,
Africana
Studies, and The Center for Ethnic Studies
at The City University of New York, has written numerous books and articles
on the history of Africa, African diasporic history, and African civilizations.
