tropolis of Ghalooji. This country is level and fertile, and contains rivers, woods, gar- 
dens, and wells. On the east side of it there are two rocky, rugged mountains ; on the 
right there is a river, and on the left there are plains and barren deserts. In the en- 
virons of the capital of Benji there are, however, several villages or towns belonging to 
the Mohammedans. Between the territory of Benji and that of Mouri is three days’ 
and nights’ journey, through barren and sandy deserts. Mouri contains small moun- 
tains, woods, and has two roads on the left; on one of which there is a deep stream, 
and on the other are two lakes, surrounded with flowering and fruitful trees. This 
country originally belonged to the Sultan of Kabi, and its inhabitants are infidels. Its 
present sultan is named Ghagara, and has a city for his residence named Lukoo-you, 
which has a great lake near it. The chief towns of this country are Dogordoosi, 
Myzani, Toonsubi, and Tabada. There are many smaller ones, which need not be 
mentioned for brevity’s sake. The lands are mostly stony, sandy, and hilly. There are 
a great many deep wells, well supplied with water; but the country altogether has but 
few trees, though it abounds with reptiles. 
“ Next to it, at two days’ journey through dry deserts, with one track of road only, 
though woody and hilly, the country of Emanoo lies, the first town of which is Baken- 
doosi, which is of a moderate size ; and has, on the east, a lake surrounded with trees ; 
and, on the west, a well-known great and very tall tree. Between this town and the 
metropolis of the sultan, whose name is Aghmarak, is half a day’s journey. Emanoo is 
part of the countries of the Tuaricks, and contains lakes, wells, mountains, hills, and 
sands. Its people live upon the dokhun, and possess a great many cattle. 
“ Next to this, at one day’s journey, is the territory of Taghzar, which also belongs 
to the Tuaricks, and contains hills, wells, and natron lakes, which is called in our lan- 
guage kawa, or salt. East and west of this country there are mountains well stocked 
with cattle. The people are the worst and most ill-disposed of the tribes of Tuarick; 
and their chief living is peas and dokhun. Their sultan is named Hama-rawado, and 
also Hama-zanzam&, which means in our language Dog. 
“ On the light of this country the territory of Jenna lies; it is a narrow vale, be- 
tween high hills and hillocks of sand ; and on the east it has a lofty mountain ; it con- 
tains natron and other deep lakes. It is inhabited by the tribe of Benoo-Hami, who 
are great warriors, possessing swift and well-trained horses, and their spears are ex- 
tremely long and well-ironed with sharp blades. They are ill-disposed people, and have 
no lawful sultan, but their chief is one chosen out of the tribe. They subsist mostly 
upon dokhun, and their country abuts on the great sea or river Cowara. 
“ On the left of the before-mentioned country (Taghzar) that of Azwa lies, which 
is inhabited both by the Tuarick and by Benoo-Hami. It contains plains, vales, moun- 
tains, hills, and sands; and has deep streams. They possess abundance of cattle, and 
most of their living is the dokhun.
