The beauty in culture Handcrafted from Ghana made with authentic beads and leather. You can literally smell, feel and see the quality. Beads, whether sewn on apparel or worn on strings, have symbolic meanings that are far removed from the simplistic empiricism of the Western anthropologist. They, or pendants, may for instance be protective, warding off evil spirits or spells, or they can be good luck charms. The oldest jewelry ever discovered was found in a cave in S...outh Africa and is believed to be over 74,000 years old. This knowledge spread across the continent, and archeological finds in Libya from around 12,000 years ago show the continued mastery of the craft as it evolved throughout the ages. The cultural significance of beadwork spread to ancient Egypt by 1500 BC. By the 1400s, this beadwork was often accepted as currency with Muslim and Christian traders, and the ornamental, ritual, religious, and ceremonial values of the craft made the beads highly valued possessions. Unfortunately, such beadwork was even commonly used as currency for the slave trade, as powerful tribes captured weaker ones to fuel economic expansion in the new world. Beading has a very long artistic and cultural history among the Indigenous people in Canada. At least 8,000 years before Europeans came to Canada, First Nations people were using beads in elaborate designs and for trade. #beading #afroqueenssaskatoon #doingitfortheculture
