New Word for me… “ana”

I learned a new word from my crossword puzzle today. Ana is a noun that describes a collection of anecdotes about a person or place.

ana

n. pl. ana or an·as

A collection of various materials that reflect the character of a person or place: definitive ana of the early American West.

Often used as a suffix, as in Americana, Africana, and Victoriana.
