[edit] Undocumented timeline for this town

Moved here, because there was no attempt to source the details, & a brief search for verification (e.g., the local history dossiers at the Nordic Africa Institute) failed to find any. Sorry, but we need a way to verify these facts. -- llywrch 02:01, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
