Anloga became the traditional and ritual capital of the Anlo Ewe in the seventeenth century after they migrated to the Keta Lagoon area from Notsie in Togo.However their efforts to exert any power beyond the range of the guns located in the fort proved to be ineffective.Lacking any effective military forces, the Danes hired the Anloga to punish the Keta.But the mock fight somehow turned into a real battle, leaving a legacy of enmity between Anloga and Keta.Keta then moved across the lagoon to build the Somey State with Agbozume as their traditional capital.
