Reading edition

Sanadaki probably means High or Supreme Counsellor, from san or sanon, high, and adégué, a counsellor. (Dard’s Dict.) Jarric (Hist. des Choses Mémorables, III. p. 372) pleasantly describes the mode of dubbing a Solatequi among the Zapes (now called Bullom, or lowlanders), near Sierra Leone. In Isaaco’s Journal (Park’s Second Journey, 8vo. p. 238), mention is made of a king styled Sallatigua-Koura. From this word is evidently derived the title Seratik, borne by the King in Bambúk and some of the Fellátah states.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
