Note 242 — VI
Philip Askell Benton translation
[There is also a kind of malodorous badger, Kanuri, ‘mbachamma’, Hausa, ‘tunku’, grey with a white-tipped tail and sharp head. The Kanuris, however, consider its scent ‘sweet’, but their taste in perfume is peculiar. According to Koelle, they think that the odour of bugs and the odour of Heaven are of the same nature; vid. ‘be̥rmade̥’ in Vocab.]
