James Bruce and Mungo Park, North Africa, 1790s
A map showing the progress of, discovery and improvement, in the geography of North Africa. The double line of dots shows Mr. Mungo Park's route in the West, Mr. James Bruce's in the East. The first European to have seen the Blue Nile in Ethiopia and the river's source was Pedro Paez, a Spanish Jesuit, who reached the river's source in 1613. The source of the Blue Nile was also reached in 1629 by the Portuguese Jesuit missionary Jeronimo Lobo and in 1770 by James Bruce. James Bruce (1730-1794) was a Scottish traveller and travel writer who spent more than a dozen years in North Africa and Ethiopia, where he traced the origins of the Blue Nile. After many adventures and misadventures he achieved his goal and argued that the Blue Nile was the Nile of the ancients and thus he was the discoverer of its source.
