@inno_lens: Otumfuo Osei Tutu arrives at the Akwasidae Durbar with the Golden stool “The Golden Stool (Ashanti-Twi: Sika dwa; full title, Sika Dwa Kofi “the Golden Stool born on a Friday”) is the royal and divine throne of kings of the Ashanti people and the ultimate symbol of power in Asante. According to legend, Okomfo Anokye, High Priest and one of the two chief founders of the Asante Confederacy, caused the stool to descend from the sky and land on the lap of the first Asante king, Osei Tutu. Such seats were traditionally symbolic of a chieftain’s leadership, but the Golden Stool is believed to house the spirit of the Asante nation—living, dead and yet to be born”. ~ Wikipedia Video: @black_innolens Photography: @inno_lens_
