embodied in several maxims. One saying of the Akan surrounding
Odomankoma is "Odomankoma boo ade", meaning Odomankoma created the "Thing" (the universe). Odomankoma created not only the "Thing," i.e., the universe. He also created life and created death as well. Mysteriously Odomankoma himself succumbed to death. This juxtaposition of life (himself, the creator) with death in Odomankoma is expressed by the most enigmatic and unutterable of all Akan maxims: "Odomankoma boo owuo na owuo kum no", which means Odomankoma created death (Owuo) and death killed him. Odomankoma accommodates the contraries of life and death within his being. As the creator of both life and death, he transcends both experiences. The story of Odomankoma does not end with Owuo killing him as after his death, it is said that life (himself, as he is the creator) came to him and woke him up. From here he reived as Kra, and lives through Nyankapon, becoming Nyankapon's sunsum (soul), as stated in the Akan maxim "Onyankapon onye Odomankoma sunsum" which means Nyankapon is Odomankoma's personality, symbolising that Nyankapon is Odomankoma's successor (as Odomankoma used to be the aspect of the Nyame trinity that controlled everything until Owuo killed him). Odomankoma is also quite powerful and smart as after his "revival", Nyankapon/Odomankoma had a great struggle with Owuo in which they defeat Owuo with resistance to Owuo's venom, kra (whom was now Odomankoma). Odomankoma then managed to achieve a total triumph over Death, as stated in the maxim "Odomankoma na orna owuo di akane", which means it was none but Odomankoma who made Death eat poison. In this second meeting between Odomankoma and his final creation, Owuo, Odomankoma unleashes his creative might upon Owuo as, after having been vanquished, death is made to eat his poison. However, despite defeating Owuo, Owuo is still alive and causes death to mortals.

Nyankapon's link to the sun. Onyankopon also shares names with
Odomankoma as Odomankoma became the spirit of Onyankapon after Owuo killed Odomankoma, so along with other names for Odomankoma, the names Opanyin or Nana are used, meaning "Grand Ancestor". Nyankapon might also be the Fante patron God Bobowissi, as well as the God stated as the supreme God in other traditional religions of peoples in Akan dominated countries such as Ivory Coat and Ghana specifically. However, they could either be their own Supreme God or Onyame, another aspect of the Akom Trinity and the parent to Onyankapon.

Odomankoma is an abbreviation of Odomankoma's full and true name: O-doma-ara-nko-ma in which all parts of the name (excluding the first o) has a meaning: "Doma" meaning 'abundance', "nko" meaning "only" or "alone", "ma" meaning "full of", coming together to mean "The one who is uninterruptedly, infinitely, and exclusively full of the manifold, namely, the interminable, eternally, infinitely, universally filled entity'.

by the Akan that spiders are the wisest of all animals, and it was possibly Ananse that advised
Odomankoma to create humans. However, Odomankoma goes by the name Ananse Kokuroko, so it might have been just him. Odomankoma also has a human form, but storyteller rarely treat him as having a human form.

Odomankoma is also represented by two animals: vultures and spiders. Odomankoma's link to vultures is expressed in the Akan maxim: "Odomankoma a oboadee, ne kyeneboa ne opete", meaning the animal that symbolizes
Odomankoma who created the world is the vulture. The spider connotation comes the belief
