Note 159 — Chapter VI
Reading edition
Mr. Bruce mentions eight cataracts of the Nile; of which, two only are below Sennar. (Vol. iii. p. 644, et seq.) M. D’Anville marks three within the same space. The principal cataracts are those formed by the abrupt descent from the upper level of Gojam, to the intermediate one of Sennar; one of them being 280 feet. (See page 647.)
