S E C O Letter D BOOKE O F this new Historie out of Africa, and of the brand new joyous one thing contained therein. Auing in my first booke made reference to locations, bounds, diuisions, and many almost every other notable and you will splendid things within Africa ; we are going to within second part way more completely, eg, largely, and you can decidedly describe sundrie prouinces, townes, mountaines. issues out of urban centers, lawes, rites, and customes, of individuals. Insomuch that people usually leaue absolutely nothing vntouched, which could any way serue towards the illustrating and mastering regarding this our very own expose discourse. Beginning thus on west section of Africa, we’ll within all of our geographicall historie proceede eastward, till we come to the fresh borders regarding Aegypt. And all that it our narration following the we are going to diuide on the seuen bookes ; whereunto (Jesus happy) i purpose to help you annexe the latest 8th, which shall intreat regarding riuers, regarding liuing pets, from trees, off vegetation, from fruit, off shrubbery, and of eg almost every other most delightfull matters. Of region of Hea sleeping vpon south-west part of Africa. Ea 1 getting one of several prouinces off Maroco are bounded westward and northwarde to your maine Ocean, southwarde with the mountaines out of Atlas, and you can eastward

for the riuer which they label Esfiualo.2 That it riuer springeth out of the foresaide mountaine, discharging it selfe in detail toward riuer out-of Tensift, and diuiding Hea regarding prouince next adiacent. Of one’s disease and malfunction off Hea. ‘His area for Hea is actually an enthusiastic vneeuen and you may rough soile, loaded with rockie mountaines, shadie trees, and you will chrystallstreames in most places ; are woonderfully steeped, and you can wel stored with people. They haue on told you region high variety out-of goates and you will asses, not such as plentie regarding sheepe, oxen and you can ponies. The kinde regarding fruites are scarce one of them, not that the floor are vncapable of fruits, but as folks are very impolite and you may ignorant inside behalfe, that not many of those try skilfull during the planting, graffing, otherwise pruning off woods. Whereof I became effortlessly perswaded : having I remember which i founde certainly some gardiners out of Hea great abundance out of fruits. Away from graine they haue little plentie, except it is off barlie, factory, and you will panick. They haue high abundance from honie, which they vse inside the stead from ordinarie foode, although waxe it shed away little about any of it, as they understand not the benefits thereof. Additionally you will find found in this particular area certaine thornie woods bearing an excellent grosse kinde off fresh fruit, not vnlike vnto those oliues which happen to be introduced vnto vs from Spaine : the fresh told you good fresh fruit it get in touch with their language Arga. Of the good fresh fruit they make a beneficial kinde ofoile, becoming out of a great fulsome and solid savour, which they vse regardless of to possess sauce and also for lampes.step 3

enthusiast was not a disciple off Ibrahim, whoever battle he along with his successor performed their very best so you’re able to exterminate. Gogideme try, possibly, while the each other Mr. Corley, and you can M. de Averzac have ideal, this new Gogdem (Cocadem) off Edrisi, put on the fresh route of Arki 7 days regarding Wad Nun, and you can several off Traza, towards the channel between those two places, while the identical to Gogdem, the name out-of a wilderness that it takes 9 weeks in order to traverse on the road away from Tuat to help you Timbuktu. Leo himself, as we should see, towns which desert into the channel of Plensem so you can Timbuktu. The new title-or lifetime-ot this locality will be discussed during the a later on phase. Meantime, it’s, surely, an alluring theory to visualize you to definitely both towns are obligated to pay their brands in order to exiles determined by the Abd-el-Mumen out-of Gogideme.-Corley, Negroland of one’s Arabs, pp. 19, 20, mention 34 ; Renou, Observe sur VAfrique septentrionale, t. ii, pp. 297-298. (129) Tesevon, otherwise Tescevin, are doubtful. Marmol mentions your a couple hills intimate together with her had been peopled because of the the Musmuda Berbers, and that the latest river which traverses their country eventually ioins the brand new Um-er-Rbia. They were worst, and you can repaid lease for their sphere so you’re able to “the Arab vassals of one’s Sheriff”, possibly the Beni-Jebir off Marmol. Whether your “certaine River” was, as there appears some factor in assuming, brand new Tessaut este Fukia (Wad Akhdir), following you to part of the Higher Atlas in which it rises, even though the supply, and, in reality, the category of river, have nonetheless becoming traced, is the “Tesevon”. If the “certaine River” (united nations fiume) ‘s the Um-el-Abra, this new slopes might be one portion of the range in which Jebel Ben Mellal and you will Jebel Amhaust could be the most prominent summits.

(1609), guy, xvi, mcdougal (Ro. C , possibly Cotlington) refers to a hill, Jessevon, close by Marakesh. (130) New “area for Tedles” (Tedle off Leo, Tedla out of Marmol) is close to the current state regarding Tedla, involving the Wad-el-Abid, and this looks on old people lower than such as for example different names (Quadelhabid, Hued-ala-Abed, Guedelebi, Louet-de-Leibit, Guadelhabid, etc.), plus the Um-er-Rbia into that it at some point drains, even if Leo ingests the majority of the fresh new Atlas. It is traversed of the a number of the large circumstances of your Great Atlas, and you may variations home to of numerous partial, or altogether independent tribes who happen to be full of cattle, fresh fruit trees, etcetera., and in the newest cereals which they cultivate in abundance for the lower basis. There are many different ” Kasbahs”, or castles, or hill strongholds, particularly Bebi-Melall, Ait-Rbia, an such like., the initial which has had fully a lot of individuals, and is defended from the about three forts of the Ait-Seri, for the defile resulting in it. The fresh Ait Atla is actually hooked on raiding the brand new flatlands. The brand new Ait Rbaa Kasbah holds about step one,five-hundred people, and specific Jews, just who keep its common condition out-of
