except a narrow rope, made of bark, round the 
loins ; they have long arrows and spears, and large 
shields of a very peculiar shape. They are said to

themselves.

flat, with much sandy soil, masr and sorghum being 
cultivated, besides a great deal of vegetables ; the 
country abounds in water, but has no running 
streams, all the watercourses being of a shallow, 
wide-spreading character, such as are called ( i ngaljam" 
in Kanuri, and " faddama" in Hausa. The rainy season 
is said to have here only three months' duration, 
the heat, even in the dry season, not being immo- 
derate. The predominant trees are the goro, kimba, 
mosoro, jittagullo, and the passakore. S.E., half a 
day's march from Yenda, is another large place of the 
Kotofo, called Korongo.
