Adinkra symbols were initially used to decorate fabrics and garments, but their inner beauty makes them perfect as tattoos as well.

AKOBEN means "war horn" and its related meaning is:

"vigilance and wariness"

The one on the left is the original version, whereas the one on the right is a stylized one.
