Djilor

Djilor lies in the Sine-Saloum country, near the tidal channels and islands of the Saloum delta. The kingdom of Saloum included a province known as Joñik, centred on Djilor, among territories governed by noble families. Its waterways connect inland settlements with the Atlantic, passing through a landscape of mangroves and salt flats. The neighbouring kingdoms of Siin and Saloum shared close cultural and historical ties among their Serer communities.
