Governor Tippu Tip holding council with his sheiks at Stanley Falls. Tippu Tip (1832 - June 14, 1905), real name Hamad bin Muhammad bin Juma bin Rajab el Murjebi, was a Swahili-Zanzibari slave trader, ivory trader, explorer, plantation owner and governor of Stanley Falls. He worked for a succession of the sultans of Zanzibar. Tippu Tip traded in slaves for Zanzibar's clove plantations. As part of the large and lucrative ivory trade, he led many trading expeditions into Central Africa by constructing profitable trading posts that reached deep into the region. He bought the ivory from local suppliers and resold it for a profit at coastal ports. Image taken from page 185: Five Years with the Congo Cannibals by Herbert Ward, 1890.
