The Kingdom of Kom in West Cameroon
The kingdom of Kom is situated in the open country in the mountainous heart of Bamenda, called by its German explorers the 'Grassfields'. It was one of some seventy small states and village chiefdoms with allegedly Tikar or Ndobo-derived dynasties in what is now West Cameroon. During the nineteenth century five kingdoms with Tikar- or Ndobo-derived dynasties—Nso, Kom, Bafut, Bum, and Ndu— extended their boundaries by incorporating and making trib…

Chronlogy of the Bamenda Grassfields
In 1964 the Bamenda Grassfields, then composed of the three West Cameroon prefectures of Bamenda, Wum and Nkambe, had a population of almost 575,000, which was densest in the Bamenda prefecture, adjoining the populous Bamileke prefectures. By 1967 these three prefectures had been increased to five–Bamenda, Gwofon, Nso, Wum and Nkambe– by division of the former Bamenda prefecture into three (Bamenda, Gwofon and Nso) and the addition to Gwofon of t…

Professors Curtin and Vansina in a recent issue of this journal (V (1964), 2, pp. 185–208) have put us in their debt by synthesizing the available information on the sources of the nineteenth-century Atlantic slave trade.

From Tribute to Tax in a Tikar Chiefdom
Opening ParagraphThis historical reconnaissance is not concerned with the economic consequences of direct taxation or its relation to the dogma of colonial self-sufficiency but rather with what McPhee calls its 'political, moral and social nature'. A revenue system reflects not only the circumstances in which the authority of governments is exercised, but some of its ideal premisses-a truism which can be illustrated from the tax history of Britis…

IntroductionWhile I was doing fieldwork in the Tikar chiefdom of Nsaw in Bamenda (Southern Cameroons) for short periods during 1945-6, 1947-8, and again in 1958, one of the main topics of conversation was the long-standing dispute between the Fon (Chief) of Nsaw and a succession of men who had held the title of Fai wo Ndzendzef. Fai wo Ndzendzef is the most senior of the state councillors (vibai; sing. kibai), and may be described as the Great Co…

Land Tenure among the Nsaw of the British Cameroons
Opening ParagraphThe Nsaw are a section of the Tikar people who are believed to have come originally from the region of Bornu and to have established themselves near Tibati in what is now the French Cameroons. About 300 years ago small bands, some under the leadership of sons of the King, broke away and eventually reached Bamenda. The sequence of the various migrations is confused, but among the last was probably that of the Nsaw under their Para…
