Read the passage from a letter by Christopher Columbus. The inhabitants . . . are well made, but because they are timid and full of terror. . . . But when they see that they are safe, and all fear is banished, they are very guileless and honest, and very liberal of all they have.

–Letter to Gabriel Sanchez, Christopher Columbus

Why might the credibility of the passage be questioned?

It is short.
It is biased.
It is detailed.
It is objective.

swahili is an extremely rich and complex civilization, a set of ethnic groups articulated by a language and a series of cultural elements that fuse the african traditions, islam and indian culture. this growth was largely a result of the indian ocean trading network that brought in not just man-made riches, but also religious ideas, specifically islam, which had a significant impact on the local culture. furthermore, the development of the swahili language gave a common cultural unity to the people.
