1901 1ed Sierra Leonne Sherbro Hinterland Secret Society Human Sacrifice AFRICA
T.J. Alldridge’s ‘The Sherbro and its Hinterland’ is an account of the first great British Sierra Leonne colony. The Sherbro and its port was the vessel for oft-used sea traders making great use of the rich natural production including palm oils, koala nuts, rubber, fruits, and other crops. While the natural goods and physical descriptions are impressive and accurate, there are interesting sections devoted to Sierra Leonne’s secret societies – the Poro, the Bundu, the Yassi, and accounts of human sacrifice!
