Cultural Description / Significance
Akuaba are wooden ritual fertility dolls from Ghana and neighboring areas. The best known Akuaba are those of the Ashanti people, whose Akuaba have large, disc-like heads. Other tribes in the region have their own distinctive style of Akuaba. Orignially, these dolls were carried on the back of women either hoping to conceive a child, or to ensure the attractiveness of the child to be born.
