The people of Anlo Afiadenyigba are descendants of the Anlo Ewe groups who settled in Anloga. The Anlo ancestors migrated from Notsie in central Togo in the mid –seventeenth century (Between the sea and the lagoon). The Anlo ancestors established several small settlements on the southern western and northern shores of the Keta Lagoon. These include Tegbi, Alakple, Kodzi in the south, Anyako to the west and Afiadenyigba is on the northern part. The conflicts between the Anlo and Keta led to war in 1792 and Keta was razed to the ground. The people of Keta migrated east and founded the Somey State with Agbozume as its traditional capital, on some on land granted to them by Klikor. It was at this time that Salu also went to ask land from the Klikor people to settle on. Etymology
