 { aivcnd'' upon thc liuiie Traa of Mountains with the Kuhher Rome ah, 

 ^''■^■'^" " and at four Leagues Diftance to the N. E. hy N. It is a neat 

 open Village, three Furlongs in Circuit, built in a full Profpeot 

 of the Meitijiah, the Mountains oi^tlas, and the City Bleedah 

 at the Foot of them. This is the neareft Place, I am acquainted 

 with, to Tipafa, that can be taken for the Cafce Cahenti of the 

 Itinerary. 

 The River Four Milcs to the N. E. ^ N. of E/ Cole ah, is the Mouth of 

 the Ma-Jaffran, a River very little, if at all inferiour to the 

 Shelliff. The firft Branch of It comes from ΜϊΙϊαηα, which, 

 uniting afterwards with another from Ham-mam Me-re-ga, is, 

 from thence, called the JVed el Ham-mam. Four Miles far- 

 «iWed-jer. thcr. It is known by the Name of the Wed-jer ; and palling 

 through the feveral deep Valleys of This Part of Mount Atlas, 

 runs in fuch a Variety of Windings, that I crofled It fourteen 

 The Wed Times in one Hour. The Wed Shiffa, and Ileek, are two other

principal Branches. The firft of Thefe rifeth among the Moun- 

 tains of the Wiiz-ra, a little Way to the N. E. οι Medea : the 

 other derives It's Stream from a lefs Diftance, defcending from 

 that Part only of the Mountains of Atlas, which hang imme- 

 diately over Bleedah. The Union of Thefe Rivulets forms the 

 Ma-faffran ' a Name probably borrowed from the Tawny, or 

 Saffron-Colour ΌΪ UiQV^^.tQr.
