[ ANANSENOVA™ // WATER BOTTLE ]
The Akan tell it this way. Ananse gathered all the wisdom in the world into one pot and decided to keep it for himself. He tied the pot to his belly and tried to climb the tallest tree to hide it, but he couldn't get a grip. His young son Ntikuma said from below, put it on your back. Out-thought by a child, Ananse lost his temper and his hold, and the pot smashed on the ground. Wisdom scattered everywhere. That's why everybody has a little of it now.
This is the pot, rebuilt. Double-walled stainless steel with vacuum insulation keeps cold drinks cold through training and the walk home, and it won't shatter if it falls out of a tree. The AnanseNova™ hexagon print wraps the body in bronze and gold on white. A wide-mouth foldable straw means you can drink between sets without unscrewing anything, and the handle rotates out of the way when you don't need it.
An old Ghanaian saying holds that wisdom is like a baobab tree: no one person's arms can reach all the way around it. Fill it and pass it around.
