Ndiaganiao

Ndiaganiao lies in the Serer country of western Senegal, in the historic region of Baol. Farming settlements occupy the inland plains between the Petite Côte and the neighbouring Wolof kingdoms. Local accounts recall raids by the armed retainers of Cayor and Baol, whose rulers competed for power in the region. To the west, the coastal port of Portudal connected Baol with Atlantic commerce from the early sixteenth century.

The later city of Thiès lies here.
