Mathematical Codes in Adinkra Symbols decode Underground Railroad Quilts Complex ideas, complex shapes like Adinkras — geometric objects that encode mathematical relationships between supersymmetric particles — are named after symbols that represent wise sayings in West African culture. This adinkra is called nea onnim no sua a, ohu, which translates as he who does not know can become knowledgeable through learning. Adinkra, which contained a wide variety of (mathematical) symbols, conveyed messages that ranged from the ethnic group to which one belonged to behavioral characteristics of the wearer. It was worn by men draped in a toga-like fashion. Kente, a painstakingly woven cloth bursting with color was worn solely Ghanaian royalty. Like Adinkra, its colors and patterns held specific meaning. Adinkra symbols were often woven into Kente or carved in statues, masks, sculptures, and utilitarian objects. Many people had questions about how they knew the codes. Others said the slaves were not smart enough to out smart their masters. People came from Africa reading, writing more than on language. Many asked who could understand the coded quilt pattern language. There were questions on how old this Quilt Code was. I have posters that date the symbols and patterns and this people to 1400 AD for the ones in Adrinkra gold weights and 900 AD in Igboland Nigeria clearly before the Civil War in America 1861-1865. We have the linage of 3 Ezes of Igbo land to 1042, 1087, 1092 BC. The photos of the West African people who came in the slave trade with the patterns cut into their skin matching the quilt patterns have not been released yet. You will be the 2nd event to see them. I will send other run away slave advertisements showing they had country marks or ichie marks. youtube video mathematician youtu.be/bp4NkItgf0E adinkras
