A figurative palanquin connected with the totem of its owner is a special kind of litter used in the Greater Accra Region in Ghana. These palanquins called in the Ga language okadi akpakai belong to the royal insignias and are used only by the Ga kings or mantsemei and their sub-chiefs when they are carried in public at durbars and festivals like Homowo. With these figurative palanquins the Ga create ethnic differences between themselves and their Akan neighbours that only use simple boat- or chair-shaped litters.

  • Figürliche Sänften in Ghana, auch Palanquins oder auf Ga akpakai genannt, sind eine von der Volksgruppe der Ga in der Region von Greater Accra verwendete und von deren Sargkünstlern hergestellte Sonderform der bekannten boots- oder stuhlförmige Sänften, die im Süden Ghanas insbesondere von den Akan-Gesellschaften verwendet werden. Wie die bootsförmigen Akan-Sänften gehören auch die figürlichen Sänften zu den königlichen Insignien, in denen sich die Oberhäupter bei öffentlichen Prozessionen hoch erhoben tragen lassen. (de)
