Akyekydeɛ akyi (Tortoise Shell)

The back/ shell of the tortoise. This print really does resemble the back of a tortoise’s shell with its rough and oval shape taking after the housing of the land-based reptile. Would it be that anyone who wears it is like the back of a tortoise shell? Resilient and protective? Perhaps.
