#Bioko

Antique wood engraved print, 1854

One Island, multiple Names
The Portuguese navigator Fernão do Pó, the first European to visit the island in 1472 named it #FormosaFlora (Beautiful Flower), but in 1494 it was renamed by Europeans as #FernãoDoPó and later the name of the island is changed from Pó to Póo, so the islands Name was #FernandoPóo. Under the Africanization policy of dictator Masie Nguema Biyogo it was renamed #MasieNguemeBiyogo Island. The island's native name in the Bube language is #Otcho. The modern name is #Bioko.

@Preston
Fantastic and a thumbs up for this great post.

“The White Old Maid” by #NathanielHawthorne is his most tantalizing narrative experiments.

The tableau is memorably #gothic: illuminated by moonlight, through the window of a mansion, the corpse of a young man who lies upon his bed, flanked by two beautiful young women—one “proud and stately,” whom he had not chosen, “and the other, a soft and fragile thing,” who was destined to be his wife. The second—and final—tableau shows us the same two women reunited in old age.

The #NatureReserve around San Antonio de #Ureca is characterized to possess with 11 species of primates and large stretches of as-yet-unspoiled forest habitat the largest variety of #primates in the world; of course in proportion to its size and number.

Nevertheless, a rare sight is this large, dominant male #drill #monkey (Mandrillus leucophaeus) - (not to be confused with their close relative #mandril (Mandrillus sphinx) - who is going to enjoy some #figs on Equatorial Guinea’s #Bioko Island

... Waves of the ocean bubbling and gurgling, blithely prying,
Waves, undulating waves, liquid, uneven, emulous waves,
Toward that whirling current, laughing and buoyant, with curves,
Where the great vessel sailing and tacking displaced the surface, ...
