People of Nzema

They are still one of the undying people of Ghana. However, no current book has been able to point out the origin of these people. Hence, this article is set to expose the origin of these people and some inevitable facts about them.

First, Nzemas are not one of Ghana’s indigenous tribes like the guans and the others. The nzemas had migrated from a different country to their current day settlements.

In the 12th century, a group of people led by the man, Adwomoloa and other men landed in Ghana. They were said to have belonged to a particular clan which is the Nvavile clan. Agona is what the Asantes call it and Anona is the fante name for the clan.

Before the time of arrival, the nzemas used to be settlers in Southern Sudan, around North Africa. They lived in an area around the southern part of the Egyptian Nile, present day Sudan.

The Nzemas lived in Nugi which is presently in Sudan. As it stands, one of the royal stools of the Nvavile people of Nzema is in Egypt. This can be located in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt.

Moreover, the activities of war and conquest, trading and other factors played a major role in their migration. As farmers, their search for a better farmland can not be neglected as a factor. All these things coming together pushed the Nzema state to their present day settlements.

According to oral tradition and some other fragments of history, the early Nzemas had longed for a land near water bodies. It is stated in oral tradition that, the deity that led the people at the time was in need of a land that is closer to a river and the sea.

Nevertheless, you can see that the present day settlement of Nzemas is in between the Gulf of Guinea and renowned rivers like Tano, Ankobra, Pra and the likes.

Notably, the first king of the Nzemas was King Anobile Aka. Nzema was then a small group of people and not as compared to what we see now.

These people became a coastal state through the efforts of the mighty lord, King Kaku

I. He was the first king to extend the shores of Nzema into other lands.

The full story of AKPLƆ̃MADA

AKPLƆ̃MADA!! Okomfo Anokye was an Ewe Togbi & the twin of Togbi Tsali ‼️ Tsali and Tsala (alias Okomfo kye) were twin brothers. Their father was Togbui Akplormada. These brothers were mysteriously endowed with potent spiritual powers. Tsala, who later became known as Okomfo Anokye, left Notsie on his sojourn at a youthful age, and finally settled at Awukugua in present day Eastern Region. Because of his spiritual powers, he became known as Okomfo Notsie (in Ewe language, Notsie Hunor) or Notsie priest. In Anlo oral history, we learnt Tsala (Okomfo Anokye) returned to Notsie around 1695 to consult with his brother Tsali before accepting the invitation of King Osei Tutu of Ashanti to help establish his kingdom (Ashanti Kingdom). During the reign of King Opoku Ware, a war broke out around 1746, Tsala (Okomfo Anokye) sought permission from the king to visit his twin brother Tsali at Keteklebi (Fiaxor) to celebrate and fortify himself at the annual Dzawuwu celebration of Mama Adexe...

THE FIRST AND OLDEST MUSICAL INSTRUMENT

FLUTE IS THE FIRST AND OLDEST MUSICAL INSTRUMENT At least that appears likely. Found in Slovenia, in a cave that was inhabited by Neanderthals, the 4.5-inch cave bear femur has four spaced, similarly-sized holes in a line in a recognizable musical scale. Even though the odds of that happening by chance are slim, much of the scientific community has rejected the idea that Neanderthals had the cognitive ability and creativity to make music, much less a flute to produce it. The main competing hypothesis is that carnivores made the holes while chewing the bone. In all fairness, both ends of the article do appear to have suffered gnawing. But experiments have shown that it would be nearly impossible for carnivores to produce the holes on the thickest and most rigid part of the bone without breaking it. And no match could be found for any animal to make two of the holes at a time. A reconstructed model of the flute has been used to produce good qua...
