GHANAIAN FANTASY COFFINS!
February 1, 2012 
Turns out that strange poster art isn’t the only way Ghanaians get out their morbid creativity: the Ga tribe in coastal Ghana specialize in making elaborate coffins discount viagra cialis levitra online tailored to the personality of those who will spend eternity in it, and these coffins range in shape from beer bottles to animals to luxury automobiles, or any other thing strongly associated with the deceased.
The tradition began about 50 years ago when a carpenter who made the chairs used to transport village chiefs, levitra verkaufen im online shop made one in the shape of an eagle, and it was so impressive that a neighbouring chief requested one in the shape of a cocoa pod. Unfortunately the chief died before it was finished, and it became his coffin, thus sparking what would become a tradition and a cottage industry alike.
