3. Westward view from Banda hills, 2000

Description:
View to the west from the crest of the Banda hills, north of Ahenkro. The view encompasses land that since 1971 has been part of Bui National Park, a Wildlife Protected Area covering more than 1800 km2.

4. Brong dance troupe, Banda Cultural Centre commissioning, 1995

Description:
A Brong dance troupe performs at the commissioning celebration for the Banda Cultural Centre. A group of drummers is seated behind the dancers. Visible in the background is the logo of the Banda Cultural Centre which is "Nyu nunu," (Nafaanra) or "Unity." This is symbolized by an Adinkra symbol showing two crocodiles who share a common stomach (two heads, two tails, one stomach; referred to as funtumfunafu in Twi). The symbol conveys the meaning "why fight over food when you share a stomach?" The Cultural Centre's main building pictured here was constructed in 1994-95 through a combination of Banda Research Project funding and communal labor supplied by Ahenkro's four Unit Committees. Ahenkro, 21 July 1995.
