a province of the kingdom of Angola, in Africa; having Oaeco on the north, Lubolo on the south, the Coanzo on the north-east, and the Reinba on the south-west. It is populous, and well stored with cattle, &c. and hath a mine of iron on a mountain, from thence called the iron mountain, which yields great quantities of that metal; and this the Portuguese have taught the natives to manufacture. This province is watered by a river called Rio Longo, and other small rivulets, lakes, &c. The trees here are vastly large; and they have one fort not unlike our apple trees, the bark of which being flathed with a knife, yields an odoriferous resin of the colour and consistence of wax, and very medicinal in its nature, only a little too hot for Europeans, unless qualified by some cooling drug.
