Finding A Knowledge Foundation for Africa by Dr. Datey Kumodzie (2006) PDF DOWNLOAD
The attached file below is part of a PDF for a paper that was distributed to attendees at a forum in Burkina Faso, West Africa in 2006.
The 19-page paper discusses the role of the spiritual sciences in the cultivation of the African mind. While the perceptive reader will recognize a couple of obscure terms and concepts from my books and articles concerning Vodun culture, this PDF goes into greater detail on those elements and is written by Dr. Datey Kumodzie of Ghana.
This is arguably the most comprehensive sample of his work on West African spiritual science that you will readily find online. It contains obscure, but highly relevant information, that I’m confident that you’ve never heard before.
His explosive statement concerning the ethnogenesis of the Ewe of Ghana, Togo, and Benin is verified by Agbotadua Togbi Kumassah who made his transition in December 2025. Kumassah was appointed by the Anlo Ewe royal court as an official historian and cultural leader, so the declaration in these pages is backed by a reputable source within the Ewe ethnic group.
I conceptualized the front cover image for this PDF. Download it. Read it. Contemplate it. Let me know what you think, and if you have any questions about what is discussed. Your questions could potentially be the subject of a future post or interview with Kumodzie.
