520 _aEuropean “explorers” were not the glorious pioneers one may imagine. In the Great Lakes Region of East Africa, as everywhere, they were accompanied by porters, guides, and interpreters, whose help as well as the information they provided are seldom acknowledged in European narratives of discovery. New attention to the scattered mentions concerning these travels points towards a cosmopolite universe of professional African informants and travel companions who found employment with these varied expeditions. This essay also discloses the extent of the networks used by African and Asian traders and middlemen who paved the road to European penetration in Burundi and Rwanda.
