Note 251 — Chapter X · , § I.—Of Loango.
Reading edition
The Bangála (akibangála, in Kimbundu Jimbangála, sing. kibangála) are the people of the Jaga of Kasanj. The term merely means “people,” and they have absolutely nothing to do with the Bangala on the middle Kongo, still less with the Galla (see Carvalho, Exp. Port. do Muatianvua, Ethnographia, p. 85).
