"Design and text by Lawrence Swienciki, PhD."--Poster. Title from poster.

The poster's central panel depicts an Asante or Ashanti king (Ghana) with his official keeper of weights, dressed in "kente" cloth, exchanging goods with a chief and his family; below, an older man is teaching a traditional board game to three students. Columns on outer left and right show traditional designs and symbols, including traceable drawings of the Chokwe people (Angola). The text box at the bottom describes Asante design, mathematical traditions and some African mathematical games; and explains network theory and symbolism of traceable designs in Chokwe sand paintings.
