English: This peson is a multiple of the weight of the seed of Abrus precatorius (0.14 to 0.19 g) which was used as reference for any weighing. Gold was extremely important in the economic and political life of the Akan kingdoms of southern Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire. Until the mid-nineteenth century, gold dust was the primary form of currency in the region. In order to measure precise amounts of gold, an elaborate system of weights, usually made of cast brass, developed by the seventeenth century. Beyond the usual function, the weigh of gold, often refer to political power, reproducing in miniature regalia, and some virtues such as wisdom proverbs generally comment. Today, the national currency has replaced the precious metal and the system weight is no longer relevant since the early twentieth century.
Français : Ce peson est un multiple du poids de la graine d’Abrus precatorius (0.14 à 0,19 g) qui servait de référence pour tout pesage. L'or était très important dans la vie économique et politique des royaumes Akan du sud du Ghana et de la Côte d'Ivoire. Jusqu'au milieu du XIXe siècle, la poudre d'or était la principale forme de monnaie dans la région. Afin de mesurer des quantités précises d'or, un système complexe de poids, généralement en laiton coulé, s'est développé au dix-septième siècle. Au-delà de cette fonction usuelle, les pesons d'ors font souvent référence au pouvoir politique, reproduisant en miniature les attributs royaux, ainsi qu’à certaines vertus comme la sagesse que commentent généralement des proverbes. Aujourd’hui, la monnaie nationale a remplacé le précieux métal et ce système pondéral n’a plus lieu depuis le début du XX° siècle.
