Note 4 — Chapter VI · THE SONGHOIS
Diana White translation
A record of their names is immaterial, but I append it, thinking to please the orientalists, who will thus be enabled to read them for the first time as they are pronounced by the Songhois.
Dialliaman’s successors were: Dia Arkaï, Dia Atkaï, Dia Akkaï, Dia Akkou, Dia Alfaï, Dia Biagoumaï, Dia Bi, Dia Kira, Dia Aum Karawaï, Dia Aum Sumaïam, Dia Aum Danka, Dia Kiobogo, Dia Koukouraï, Dia Kenken; these were idolaters. The sixteenth king, reigning towards the year 1000 of our era, was converted to Islamism in 1010, and since then all the Songhoi princes have been Mussulmans. The list of names continues without incident up to Dia Soboï: Dia Koussaï Daria, Dia Hin Koronou Goudam, Dia Bia Koni Kimi, Dia Binta Say, Dia Bia Kaïna Kamba, Dia Kaïna Siniobo, Dia Tip, Dialliaman Diago, Dia Ali Korr, Dia Berr Faloco, Dia Siboi, Dia Dourou, Dia Kabaro, Dia Bissi Baro, Dia Bada.
