Note
Compares two seventeenth century word lists (Africanus 1665, Dapper 1668) with lexical items from modern Duala, Isuwu and Mokpe.“It would seem ... [that] the seventeenth century language is most probably an earlier form of Duala, while the possibility cannot be ruled out that it is the same language from which Isuwu and Mokpe, and conceivably all other Duala-group languages, have also derived” (p51).
