SilvaShadows Background: Grewup in two Anlo Ewe royal families. Last born of princess Janet Abui Tamakloe (daughter of king/chief Julius Nyaho Tamakloe of Wuti). Her mother (my grandmother) was princess Ester Amesika Acolatse (daughter of king/chief Joachim Acolatse of Kedzi). Growing up in Keta, I remember that there were four kings/chiefs who ruled their kingdoms from Keta. Togbui Sri (paramont chief), Togbui Acolatse, Togbui Tamakloe and Togbui James Ocloo of Keta. Keta was the commercial center where all the forein ships brought cargos (prior to the construction of Tema harbour). I was very curious and was liked by the elders. They took me along to witness most of the cultural events. They taught me some of the traditional ways. I know most of the undocumented Anlo culture, medicine and traditions. The Anlos did not keep most of their records. I was exposed to other cultures in both Ghana and Togo.
Edits 1. Kente cloth. 2. Anlo Ewe. Rf. to circmcision.
