The Akan religion is a polytheistic and animist faith practiced by the Akan people in West Africa and in diaspora communities in Central and South America. This religion recognizes a Supreme God, lower deities or spirits, and ancestors. The head priest, Nai Wulomo, leads rituals and ceremonies that are often based on the ancestors’ cycle and the observation of natural phenomena. Important symbols in the Akan religion include Sankofa, Nyam Ye Ohene, Wawa Aba, and Okodee Mmowere.
