[397] The Jesuit fathers (Francisco de Gouvea and Garcia Simões) date their letters from _Angoleme_, and call the King’s capital Glo-amba Coamba, evidently a misprint. Sixty leagues would carry us far beyond the later capital, Pungu a ndongo, perhaps as far as the Anguolome aquitambo (Ngwalema a kitambu) of Garcia Mendes, in the district known as Ari. Another Angolome (Ngolome) lived less than twenty leagues from the coast, on the northern side of the Kwanza, and near him a soba, Ngola ngoleme a kundu. Neves (_Exped. de Cassange_) says the old name of Pungu a ndongo is Gongo a mboa. For the Jesuit letters of that time, see (_Boletim_, 1883, pp. 300-344). [398] He is referred to as Ngola Mbandi or Ngola ndambi. [399] Lopes de Lima, _Ensaios_, p. ix, calls him Kiluanji kia samba, an ancestor of the chief residing near the presidio of Duque de Bragança. V. J. Duarte (_Annaes do cons. ultramar._, vol. ii, p. 123), the commandant of that presidio in 1847, confirms that it occupies the site of a former chief of that name, who was, however, quite an insignificant personage. [400] Domingos d’Abreu de Brito, in a MS. of 1592, quoted by Lima, _Ensaios_, p. x. Garcia Mendes mentions seven hundred men, but these probably included the crews of the vessels. [401] F. Garcia Simões, S.J., informs us that a few days before the arrival of Dias four men had been killed at a village only six leagues from Luandu, and eaten.—_Boletim_, 1883. [402] Domingos d’Abreu de Brito, quoted by Paiva Manso, p. 139, informs us that in 1592 it was governed by a Muene Mpofo, M. Luandu and M. Mbumbi. [403] The King, after his defeat, is stated to have ordered the Makotas who had given him this evil counsel to be killed (Lopes de Lima, p. xiii). [404] Lima, _Ensaios_, vol. xi, suggests that this S. Cruz became subsequently known as Kalumbu, and that its church was dedicated to S. José. To me it seems more likely that it occupied the site of Tombo, and was subsequently abandoned. [405] This “Penedo” seems subsequently to have been named after Antonio Bruto, a captain-major. [406] Garcia Mendes, p. 19, describes Kanzele as lying half-way between the rivers Kwanza and Mbengu. [407] According to Antonio of Gaeta two leagues below Masanganu. Garcia Mendes calls this place Makumbe. [408] See his account of this battle in _Boletim_, 1883, p. 378. The story in the _Catalogo_, that Dias sent loads of cut-off noses to S. Paulo, is hardly credible. [409] So says Garcia Mendes, p. 25; whilst Duarte Lopez, p. 34, says they were sent, but being defeated on the river Mbengu, retired again to the north. [410] Diogo Rodrigues dos Colos brought three hundred men in 1584; Jacome da Cunha, nine hundred in 1586. Two hundred Flemings, who arrived in 1587, nearly all died soon after they had been landed. [411] Garcia Mendes, p. 24. [412] In 1809 his remains were transferred to the Jesuit Church at Luandu.
