KAJUAGA, a kingdom of Africa, bounded on the south east and south by Bambouk; on the west by Bondon and Foota Torra; and on the north by the river Senegal. The air and climate are more pure and healthy than at any of the settlements towards the coast; the face of the country is pleasantly diversified with hills and valleys, and the windings of the river Senegal make the scenery on its banks extremely beautiful. The inhabitants are called Serawoolies, who have a jet black complexion, in which respect they are not to be distinguished from the Jallous. The government is monarchical, and the royal authority, according to Mr Park, is sufficiently formidable. The people are deemed tolerably fair and just in their dealings, and indefatigable in their exertions to acquire wealth.
Their language abounds with gutturals, and therefore not so harmonious as that which is spoken by the Foulahs; but it is worth a traveller's while to obtain a knowledge of it, as it is generally understood in many kingdoms of Africa. Joag is the frontier town, entering
Kaind. tering from Pisania, surrounded by a high wall, and is
Kalender. supposed to contain 2000 inhabitants. It is situated in
N. Lat. 14. 25. W. Long. 9. 46.
