Abstract

The history of a Bahamian manuscript attributed to Abul Keli, an African prince, is presented in the article. It is argued that the English translation of Abul Kelis Arabic dispatches is a mystification connected with the political struggle on the Bahamas. The author discusses the reinterpretation of African Muslim cultural heritage in the New World, the modern Afro-Caribbean Islam and the legends of African slave princes in Latin America.
