How did ananse stories travel to Ghana from the west indies?

The stories were taken across the Atlantic by the slaves that were transported from the coast of West Africa to the Caribbean and Americas. They were told on board the ships and on plantations amongst Ghanaian slaves in an effort to maintain the communities they formed with a lifestyle they were familiar with. The stories were said to 'survive' the middle passage of the slave ships, where slave owners tried as much as possible to erase all traces of African culture as much as possible.
