Unity in diversity, democracy

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

FUNTUNFUNEFU DENKYEMFUNEFU is the perfect example of how a little symbol can hide a much greater meaning: its translation is "siamese crocodiles" and its related meaning is:

"unity in diversity, democracy", because since the two crocodiles share one single stomach, if a crocodile eats, everyone eats, and none of them survives without the other. That´s how democracy should work, where all the people are equal and depend one on each other.
