Excerpt from Book of Roads and KingdomsThe city of Ghana consists of two towns situated on a plain. One of these towns, which is inhabited by Muslims, is large and possesses twelve mosques, in one of which they assemble for the Friday prayer.…The king’s town is six miles distant from this one…. The king has a palace and a number of domed dwellings all surrounded with an enclosure like a city wall. Around the king’s town are domed buildings and groves and thickets [woods] where the sorcerers of these people, men in charge of the religious cult, live. In them too are their idols [statues] and the tombs of their kings.The king adorns himself.… wearing necklaces round his neck and bracelets on his forearms and he puts on a high cap decorated with gold and wrapped in a turban of fine cotton. He holds an audience in a domed pavilion around which stand ten horses covered with gold-embroidered materials… and on his right, are the sons of the vassal kings of his country, wearing splendid garments and their hair plaited with gold.
