Kente comes from the word kenten, which means "basket" in the Asante dialect of Akan. Akans refer to kente as nwentoma, meaning "woven cloth". It is an Akan royal and sacred cloth worn only in times of extreme importance and was the cloth of kings. Over time, the use of kente became more widespread.
