KAJAA'GA, or Gallam, a kingdom of Africa, 
bounded on the north by the Senegal, on the fouth-eaft 
by Bambouk, and on the weft by Bondou and FootaTor- 
ra. This country is called Gallam by the French ; the air 
and climate, Mr. Park thinks, are more pure and falubri- 
ous than at any of the fettlements towards the coaft ; the 
face of the country is every where interfperfed with a 
pleating variety of hills and valleys; and the windings of 
the Senegal river, which defcends from the rocky hills of 
the interior, make the fcenery on its banks very pifturefque 
and beautiful. The inhabitants are called Serawool- 
lies, or (as the French write it) Seracolets; their com¬ 
plexion is a jet black ; they are not to be diftinguifhed 
in this refpebt from the Jaloffs. The government is mo¬ 
narchical ; and the regal authority, from what Mr. Park 
experienced of it, feems to be fufficiently formidable. 
The people themfelves complain of no oppreffion, and 
feemed all very anxious to fupport the king in a conteft 
he was going into with the fovereign of Kaffon. The Se- 
rawoollies are habitually a trading people; they formerly 
carried on a great commerce with the French in gold 
and flaves, and kill maintain fome traffic with the Britiffi 
fadtories on the Gambia; they are reckoned tolerably fair 
and juft in their dealings, but indefatigable in their exer¬ 
tions to acquire wealth ; and they derive confiderable 
profits by the fide of fait and cotton cloth in diftant coun¬ 
tries. When a Serawoolli merchant returns home from a 
trading expedition, the neighbours immediately aflemble 
to congratulate him upon his arrival; on thefe occafions 
the traveller difplays his wealth and liberality, by making 
a few prefents to his friends ; but, if he has been unfuc- 
cefsful, his levee is foon over, and every one looks upon 
him as a man of no underftanding,who could perform along 
journey, and (as they exprefs it) bring back nothing but 
the hair upon his head. Their language abounds much 
in gutturals, and is not fo harmonious as that fpoken by 
the Foulahs ; it is however well worth acquiring by thofe 
who travel through this part of the African continent; it 
being very generally underftood in the kingdoms of Kaf¬ 
fon, Kaarta, Ludamar, and the northern parts of Bain- 
barra. In all thefe countries the Sera woollies are the 
chief traders.
