Phyllis Wheatly, the first African American novelist, was capturesd by theido warriors in Senegambia and sold into slavery. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis_Wheatley http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolof_Empire What is does not say is that Dylof was founded by a Mandingo?Mande named Dyolof Mbeng It broke into smaller kingdoms Djolof, Cayor, Baol and Waalo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waalo What it does not say is that Waalo's kings got their power from matrilineal descent. Three lineages from the first wife(queen), The power of the royal lineages were often disputed. They were Logar of Maure origin, Dyo of Serer/Tukulor origin, and Tedyek of Peul-Mande origin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayor http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baol CAYOR and BAOL Were sister states often ruled by the same king whose power was based on a female lineage. These states fought constantly over the control of Waalo. Sine/Saloum the Serer Kingdoms http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saloum [/QB][/QUOTE]
