DAN PEOPLE Dan, also called Gio or Yakuba, an ethnolinguistic grouping of people inhabiting the mountainous west-central Côte d’Ivoire and adjacent areas of Liberia. The Dan belong to the Southern branch of the Mande linguistic subgroup of the Niger-Congo language family. They originated somewhere to the west or northwest of their present lands, perhaps among the Malinke (Mandingo). The Dan are closely related to the Gere (also spelled Ngere, or Guere) to the south. DAN MASKS Generally, ancient masks in the Kingdom were symbol of power to the owner. The power were coming from spiritual world and the ancestors. The masks were: 1. Ritual or ceremonial object 2. Decorative or ornamental object (Art) Dan masks are sacred and are believed to be actual spirits of the wilderness.
