AFRICA
We now come to newly opened up country, for Livingstone is of our time & Bishop MacKenzie in the Zambesi river also: The wooden Pipe with the Curious board in front of the Bowl is used by the LOMWE Tribe of MAKUAS on the LUKUGU River which runs into the “LAKE TANGANYIKA”—W. and a very curious arrangement it is the front of the board being elaborately carved. The Two lower Pipes are large & cumbersome & used to smoke Wild Hemp or “Cannabis Indica” sometimes called Banghi, but generally, “Bang”—In India we find the same name applied to a spirit obtained from Palms into pots & collected in the Deccan.
