Though a few of my informants were of opinion that there was a branch- wádí uniting the Bahr el Ghazál with Lake Fittrí, nevertheless most of them stated uniformly that they have no connection whatever, but that several independent valleys intervene between them. This statement is borne out by many circumstances. The direction of the Burrum, for a considerable part of its course, is given by the route from Mʿawó to Yʿawó, the capital of the province Fittrí (according to my informants, due east). 1st day (short). Kálkalá, different from the place Kulákulá mentioned above. 2nd. Gújer. Pass here the heat; start again in the afternoon; sleep on the road. This whole district appears to have the general appellation of Sagóre, which I think cannot be different from Yagóre, the name of the country in which Mondó is situated. 3rd. Toróro, a well in the Burrum; before the kaila. A man on horseback is said to go in one day from Mʿawó to the wádí. Pass here the heat; start again at dhohor, and encamp at sunset, still in the wádí. 4th. Encamp at the beginning of the heat, still in the same wádí. 5th. In another (?) wádí. 6th. Shégeráye, a well with much water (and, according to other informants, in the Burrum). 7th. Hájiját. 8th. Encamp between the rocks in Wádí Fáli. 9th. Fittrí. ITINERARY FROM YʿAWÓ TO MʿAWÓ, ACCORDING TO THE BULÁLA IBRAHÍM. 1st day. Fáli, a rocky valley belonging to Bagírmi. 2nd. Aúni, a hamlet inhabited by Bagírmi people. 3rd. Búkko. 4th. Shégeráye, a valley inhabited by Tebu Gurʿaán. 5th. Bahr el Ghazál. 6th. Kedáda, a place inhabited by Týnjur. It is a question of some importance whether this Kedáda be identical with the Kedáda mentioned above. 7th. Mondó, a considerable place in the district Yagóre, and therefore sometimes called Mondó Yagóre, inhabited by Týnjur (about this curious race of people I shall have occasion to say more in another place), Wádáy people, and Arabs. In the same district of Yagóre lies also the place Bugárma, governed by the chief Kedl Adúmmo. Mondó is mentioned by Denham repeatedly under the form Mendoo or Kanem Mendoo, and was computed by him to be distant about ten hours’ ride from his station in the camp of the Dúggana.[70] Mondó is the residence of a governor formerly under the authority of Bórnu, but at present (at least in 1851) under that of Wádáy. The present governor is Fúgobo Bakr, or Ábakr (properly Ábú Bakr); and very often the agíd el bahr resides here. 8th. Yagúbberi (the name, probably, connected with that of the Kánembú tribe Kúbberi), inhabited by Týnjur. 9th. Mʿawó. Here may be conveniently mentioned the stations along the celebrated Burrum, as given to us by the Welád Slimán, which, checked by the itineraries mentioned above, will give an approximate outline of the windings of the valley, as laid down in the map. Beginning at ʿAlímarí, always keeping along the Burrum, the usual stations are the following:—
