The relationship thus created is held among the Bogos to be hereditary (Id. ib. ; cp. R. V. Ihering, "Die Gastfreundschaft," pp. 389-392).
ROYAL PROTECTION. 8i must take a temporary protector ; ^ and, according to Leo Africanus,^ the traveller must, in some parts of Morocco, have the escort of some saint or woman of the country.
Sec. 49. When the royal power is absolute, the king ve...ry generally monopolises commerce, at the same time protecting the trader. Thus, in the Soolima country, he does not permit mercantile transactions to take place except with his knowledge and in his presence. Strangers on arrival send their goods to his trading-house, and he makes known what is for sale. The purchaser makes his own bargain with the seller, and is responsible to the king for payment. When the stranger wishes to depart, the king collects the debt, retains custom, and gives him the balance and a present with leave to go away.^ At Shoa and Usambara, the foreigner, by giving a small present to the king, whose power is absolute, can secure his protection.
