Mungo Park (11 September 1771 – 1806) was a Scottish explorer of the African continent. He was the first Westerner known to have travelled to the central portion of the Niger River. Mungo Park was born in Selkirkshire, Scotland, at Foulshiels on the Yarrow Water, near Selkirk, on a tenant farm which his father rented from the Duke of Buccleuch. He was the seventh in a family of thirteen.[1][2] Although tenant farmers, the Parks were relatively well-off. They were able to pay for Park to receive a good education, and Park's father died leaving property valued at £3,000 (UK£210,000 in 2014).[3] The Parks were Dissenters, and Mungo Park was brought up in the Calvinist tradition.

The First Information We Have Respecting the Interior Of Africa Is Derived From Herodotus, Who, During his Residence In egypt, Endeavoured To Collect As Much Intelligence As Possible Respecting the General Aspect Of The Country. He Describes It As Far Less Fertile Than The Cultivated Parts Of Europe And Asia, And Much Exposed To Drought, With The Exception Of A Few Verdant Spots. To The Northern Coast, He Gives The Name Of The Forehead Of Africa; And Says That Immediately South From It, The Comparative Fertility Of The Soil Rapidly Decreases. [mehr]

Progress Of African Discovery, Before Park'S First Expedition.--Park'S Early Life._ The First Information We Have Respecting The Interior Of Africa Is Derived from Herodotus, Who, During His Residence In egypt, Endeavoured To Collect As Much Intelligence As Possible Respecting The General Aspect Of The Country. He Describes It As Far Less Fertile Than The Cultivated Parts Of Europe And Asia, And Much Exposed to Drought, With The Exception Of A Few Verdant Spots. To The Northern Coast, He Gives The Name Of The Forehead Of Africa; And Says That Immediately South From It, The Comparative Fertility Of The Soil Rapidly Decreases. There Are Natural Hills Of Salt, Out Of Which The Inhabitants Scoop Houses To Shelter Themselves From The Weather; Rain They Have Not To Fear, As Scarcely A Drop Ever Alights Upon That Sultry Region. Farther South Still, There Is No Food To Support Man Or Beast--Neither Shrub, Nor A Single Drop Of Water; All Is Silence And Utter Desolation. Herodotus Then Proceeds To Relate A Number Of Monstrous Fables, Which Bear An Overwhelming Proportion To The Parts Of His Narrative Which Are Now Known To Be True. He Also Describes A Large Inland River, Which Some Have Supposed to Be The Niger, Flowing From West To East. He Acquired this Information From The Reports Of Various Travellers, Who Stated that After A Long Journey To The Interior, They Had Themselves Seen It. This Account Was Confirmed By Several Other Ancient Authors; But For A Long Time The Question Was Agitated by Modern Writers As To Whether The Gambia Or The Senegal Was Not The River Spoken Of; Some Even Denying The Existence Of The Niger Altogether.
