THE KENTE CLOTH STORY: The year is 1711 A.D. in what is now Ghana, West Africa - two friends, Krugu Amoaya and Watah Kraban are hunting one afternoon and come across a spider weaving its web. Astounded by its skill and beauty, the friends return back to their village and recreate the spider's techniques and weave a cloth, by hand, out of black and white fibers from a raffia tree. They present this cloth to their King. The King decrees this first Kente Cloth as Royal clothing and accelerates Kente's standing as an attire reserved for very important events.
