[89] The name Calandola is by no means rare. A Calandula Muanji resided in 1884, eight miles to the north-east of Malanje (Carvalho, _Viagens_, vol. i, p. 443); another resided, formerly, near Ambaca (_ib._, p. 230); and a third on the Lucala, south of Duque de Bragança, was visited by Capello and Ivens (_Benguella_, vol. ii, p. 45). A Jaga Calandula accompanied João Soares de Almeida on his disastrous expedition to Sonyo (_Cat. dos Gov._, p. 390). Either of these may have been a descendant of Battell's Calandula.
[90] Human victims are still sacrificed by the diviner when consulting departed spirits (see A. R. Neves, _Memoria_, p. 119).
[91] Cavazzi (_Historica Descrizione de tre Regni Congo, etc._, Bologna, 1687, p. 207) gives a plan of a Jaga camp, or Kilombo. It is formed of a square stockade, having in its centre the quarters of the Commander-in-chief, within a triple hedge of thorns. Between the stockade, which has only a single gate, and the inner enclosure are the quarters of the six principal officers, including the Golambolo (_ngolo_, strength, _mbula_, a blow), or Lieutenant-General, the Tendala, or Commander of the Rear-guard, and the Mani Lumbo (_lumbu_, a stockade), or Engineer-in-chief.
[93] Bahia das Vaccas, old name for Benguella Bay. There seems to be no native name for gold; yet Dr. Francisco José Maria de Lacerda, when with the abortive expedition of 1797, which was charged with the exploration of the Kunene, met a negress whose head-dress was composed of golden laminæ, said to have been washed in that river (Burton, _Lacerda's Journey to Cazembe_, London, 1873, p. 23). Ladislaus Magyar (_Reisen_, p. 176), says that about 1833 a Brazilian miner washed gold in the mountains of Hambo. Quite recently, in 1900, the Mossamedes Company granted a lease of the Kasinga goldfields to an English company.
[94] The Imbondos are clearly the Nbundu of Angola, who draw the palm wine from the top, whilst the Jagas cut down the tree.
[95] Purchas adds, in a marginal note: "Fruges consumere nati."
[97] Calando should be Calandola (see note on p. 28).
[98] Mbamba, a whelk or trumpet-shell (Cordeiro da Matta, _Dicc. Kimbundu_).
[99] Mr. Dennet suggests _msose_, a turritella, popularly known as screw-shell.
