If we color the edges of an Adinkra with a rainbow of shades in a specific order, we obtain a special curve that we can study using<br aria-hidden=\"true\" \/>algebraic and geometric techniques. We use this structure to characterize height functions on Adinkras, then show how to compute the same information using data from our rainbow.
