Abstract
and the Kong and Korhogo regions in northern Côte d’Ivoire. The study aims to unravel the intricate regional and global web in which weaving and trading centers in Ghana, Togo, and Côte d’Ivo-ire form hubs through which cloth and weavers move. By focusing on the relationship between weaving and trading centers, the networked relationships between and among locations, people, and products can become clearer.
