TERRITORY OF THE DO'MA.

of the large mountain mass already mentioned. The 
whole country is laid out in cultivated fields. 
7th. After aser arrive at Zaranda; the country partly wild 
and partly cultivated. 
8th. At noon reach Yakoba. 
I now proceed to give the routes from different points, ob- 
tained by the construction of the former itineraries, and cor- 
rected also by the recent observations of European travellers, 
to Wukari, the capital of that very interesting country Ko- 
rorofa, which, unfortunately, was not reached by the late 
expedition on the river Benuwe. 
Close to Lafiya Berebere, begins the territory of the Doma, 
the capital of which, called likewise Doma (at least by my 
informants), is only one day from Lafiya, and five days from 
Kefii-n-Abdezenga, the road from this latter place to Doma 
passing by Hariri, a large town still dependent upon Zariya, 
and distant three days from the former, and two from the 
latter town. This Doma is a large walled town ; but already 
in the year 1851 its governor was obliged to pay a small 
tribute to the governor of Zariya. A great number of Nyf- 
fawa, or people from Nupe, are said to live here. 
From Doma there seem to be two roads to Wukari, 
although I frankly confess that the information which I 
obtained with regard to them, as well as to other parts of 
Kororofa, was not so clear as I might have wished. One of 
these routes crosses the river at a spot called Chinkay ; the 
other does not name the ferry. Chinkay is not among the 
places laid down hereabouts in the survey of the Benuwe 
expedition ; but it is evidently either identical with, or near 
to Anyishi. 
From Doma my informant goes to Kubere ; thence to 
Kaderku (the Bridge), a town belonging to Doma ; thence 
to Kiyana, or Keana, a considerable market-place, which he 
calls " birni-n-Kororofa, kasa-n-Bauchi," the inhabitants pay- 
ing tribute as well to the Pullo governor of Bauchi as to
