Difficult to read. Produced by Pedro Saborano "Relatorio de uma viagem ás terras do Changamira" by Joaquim Carlos Paiva de Andrada is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work serves as a detailed report of an expedition through regions in Africa, particularly focusing on the socio-political conditions and the natural wealth of the territories encountered, including references to local chiefs and the quest for gold. The narrative is recounted from the perspective of the author, who is on a mission that involves engagement with local rulers and exploration amidst challenging conditions. At the start of the report, the author recounts his return to Gouveia after a journey to the lands of Gungunhana, illustrating the urgency and purpose surrounding his travels. He describes the alarming state of the region, marked by famine caused by drought and poor harvests, framing the dire circumstances of the local population, particularly in the context of gold prospecting and trade. The opening sets the stage for an expedition filled with interactions with local tribes, as well as an ongoing analysis of the geography and resources of the Changamira region, hinting at the broader themes of colonial exploration and the complex dynamics of local governance that will unfold throughout the narrative.
