Abstract

This essay deals with the pictograms, written texts, and paintings as they occur on the canoes in the Ga speaking area in Ghana. It is argued that they are very succinct, symbolic expressions of a wide range of relations, identifications and sympathies of their owners/users with things, fellow human beings and ideas.
