Thanks for such an interesting and informative explanation! I thought the stoles looked almost "religious" (like what a minister would wear), but now I see there is further meaning. Just to let you know, I think you must be referring to "Ashanti". (I've been to Africa, and I did come across this word in conversation/reading).

Thanks again!
