Though there are multiple spellings for this surname, they all refer to the same people. The differences in spelling came about because Senegal was colonized by France, while the Gambia was colonized by the United Kingdom. Although spelt differently, they are pronounced the same way.

The totem and symbol of the Joof family is the antelope, the symbol of grace, royalty, wisdom, hard work and protection in Serer mythology. The name of their clan is "Njoofene" variations: "Njuufeen" or "Njufeen" (in Serer).[1][2] Members of this family had ruled over many of the pre-colonial kingdoms of Senegambia, including the Kingdom of Sine, the Kingdom of Saloum and the Kingdom of Baol. The royal princesses (Lingeers) from the Joof family were also given in marriage to the pre-colonial kings and princes of Senegambia. Some of these included the kings of Jolof, kings of Waalo, kings of Cayor and Baol (after 1549 following the Battle of Danki). From these marriages, they provided many heirs to the thrones of these kingdoms.[3][4] Although usually associated with Serer royalty, the Joof family also figure prominently in Serer religious affairs.

History of the Joof family edit

The Wagadou period edit

The Joof family is one of the old families of Senegambia. Serer oral tradition speaks of a noble called Lamane Jegan Joof, owner of a large herd of livestock and estate who was also a farmer. He migrated from Lambaye following an argument with his relative, the king of Lambaye. The dispute concerned the governance of Lambaye and over-taxation of his herd which he considered unjust. As such, he decided to head south and founded Tukar with his younger brother Ndik Joof. The tradition then went on to say that, he had a son called Sosseh Joof (Socé Diouf) who was the heir of Tukar.[5] Some scholars have proposed that, Tukar (and many of its surrounding villages such as Njujuf, Sob, etc., which were founded by Lamane Jegan Joof making them part of his estate and colony) now a rather large village in present-day Senegal, is an ancient village and well before the Guelowar period (1335[6]) and placed the foundation of these villages in the 11th century, if not earlier.[7][8] The Joof family had ruled Tukar for many centuries, inherited from their ancestor Lamane Jegan Joof through the Serer Lamanic custom, a rather strict custom of Serer land law and inheritance. In 2004, Lamane Njaga Dibor Ndoffene Joof (Lamane Diaga Dibor Ndofene Diouf) was the last lamane of Tukar.[9]

In the early history of the Ghana Empire to its end, the royal princesses of the Empire married into the Serer aristocratic families, some of these included Joof family. These royal princesses belonged to the maternal clan Wagadou (Bagadou in Serer language). With the Joof paternal clan, they ruled the Kingdom of Baol and provided many kings from the patrilineage Joof (the Joof paternal dynasty of Baol). Some of these kings include Boureh Joof (Bouré Diouf), Guidiane Joof (Guidiane Diouf), Ma Joof, Jinak Dialane [probably Gnilane] Joof, Maguinak Joof, etc. These kings preceded the Guelowar period by at least two or three centuries and long before the Fall paternal dynasty of Baol and Cayor who inherited the throne around 1549 after the Battle of Danki. The general consensus is that, after the demise of the Joof paternal and Wagadou maternal dynasties of Baol with other Serer paternal dynasties who jointly ruled Baol, the Fall paternal dynasty succeeded them, hence the first Damels and Teignes (titles of the kings of Cayor and Baol, respectively) from the Fall patrilineage were of Wagadou maternal descent. They simply married into the old royal family and succeeded to the throne.[10][11]

The 11th-century legendary figure Amar Godomat or Ama Gôdô Maat, né. Ama Kodu Joof, is a member of this family.

The Guelowar period edit

 
Maad a Sinig Kumba Ndoffene Fa Ndeb Joof, from The Royal House of Boureh Gnilane Joof, King of Sine from c. 1898 to 1924

The Guelowar period starts from 1350 during the reign of the first Guelowar king of Sine - Maad a Sinig Maysa Wali[12][13] and ends in 1969 after the death of the last king of Sine and Saloum (Maad a Sinig Mahecor Joof and Maad Saloum Fode N'Gouye Joof respectively).[14][15]

Maysa Wali and his family (the maternal clan Guelowar) fled Kaabu in 1335 following a dynastic struggle. They were defeated by the Ñaanco maternal dynasty of Kaabu (their extended relatives) and were granted asylum in the Kingdom of Sine by a Serer noble Council called The Great Council of Lamanes. Having served as legal advisor to this noble Council for 15 years, Maysa Wali managed to win the confidence and trust of the council and the common people. He was nominated and elected by the council and the people as king of Sine. He was the first Guelowar king of Sine. He gave his sisters in marriage to the Serer nobility which sealed the union between Serer and Guelowar.[16] It was the offspring of these marriages between the old Serer paternal noble clans and the Guelowar maternal clan of Kaabu that ruled the kingdom of Sine and later Saloum. In this Guelowar period, the Joof family (one of the oldest Serer paternal noble clans) provided many kings in the Kingdoms of Sine and Saloum (the Joof paternal dynasty of Sine and Saloum). The Joof family also founded three royal houses as follows (in the order of foundation)[17][18] :

They all trace their descent to Maad Ndaah Njemeh Joof (also known as Bour Ndaah Ndiémé Diouf or Ndaah Njeeme Juuf) - the king of Laah (or Laa) in Baol, around the 13th century. Maad Ndaah Njemeh Joof was the father of Maad Niokhobai Joof (also king of Laa) who was the father of the Great Maad Patar Kolleh Joof (also: Bour or Buur Patar Kholé Diouf or Bour Patar Kholleh Diouf) - the conqueror of Baol.[17] Maad Patar Kolleh Joof was the first of the Joof family to marry a Guelowar (Maad a Sinig Maysa Wali's niece). From that marriage he had Maad a Sinig Niokhobai Mane Nyan Joof (Niokhobaye Mane Niane Diouf) and Maad a Sinig Gejopal Mane Nyan Joof (Guédiopal Niane Mane Diouf), who were the first kings of Sine during the Guelowar period from the patrilineage Joof. Their brother Jaraff Boureh Gnilane Joof (Diaraf Bouré Gnilane Diouf) was not a king of Sine, but a Jaraff (equivalent of Prime Minister), who gave his name to the first Royal House of the Joof Dynasty (in the Guelowar period) and it is from that "The Royal House of Boureh Gnilane Joof" derived from, which provided several kings in Sine and Saloum. The Joof Dynasty that succeeded to the throne of Saloum came from Sine.[17][20]

Some of the sacred Serer sites regularly venerated were founded or headed by this family which underpins their involvement in the Pangool cult.[35][36] Some of these venerated sites includes Tagdiam, residence of Maad Semou Njekeh Joof who is associated with the cult of Tagdiam;[37][38] and Tukar, founded by Lamane Jegan Joof. In the Serer religious calendar, the Raan festival which takes place once a year after the new moon is held in Tukar.[39]

5 1 BibliographyHistory of the Joof family editThe Wagadou period edit Further information Lamane The Joof family is one of the old families of Senegambia Serer oral tradition speaks of a noble called Lamane Jegan Joof owner of a large herd of livestock and estate who was also a farmer He migrated from Lambaye following an argument with his relative the king of Lambaye The dispute concerned the governance of Lambaye and over taxation of his herd which he considered unjust As such he decided to head south and founded Tukar with his younger brother Ndik Joof The tradition then went on to say that he had a son called Sosseh Joof Soce Diouf who was the heir of Tukar 5 Some scholars have proposed that Tukar and many of its surrounding villages such as Njujuf Sob etc which were founded by Lamane Jegan Joof making them part of his estate and colony now a rather large village in present day Senegal is an ancient village and well before the Guelowar period 1335 6 and placed the foundation of these villages in the 11th century if not earlier 7 8 The Joof family had ruled Tukar for many centuries inherited from their ancestor Lamane Jegan Joof through the Serer Lamanic custom a rather strict custom of Serer land law and inheritance In 2004 Lamane Njaga Dibor Ndoffene Joof Lamane Diaga Dibor Ndofene Diouf was the last lamane of Tukar 9 In the early history of the Ghana Empire to its end the royal princesses of the Empire married into the Serer aristocratic families some of these included Joof family These royal princesses belonged to the maternal clan Wagadou Bagadou in Serer language With the Joof paternal clan they ruled the Kingdom of Baol and provided many kings from the patrilineage Joof the Joof paternal dynasty of Baol Some of these kings include Boureh Joof Boure Diouf Guidiane Joof Guidiane Diouf Ma Joof Jinak Dialane probably Gnilane Joof Maguinak Joof etc These kings preceded the Guelowar period by at least two or three centuries and long before the Fall paternal dynasty of Baol and Cayor who inherited the throne around 1549 after the Battle of Danki The general consensus is that after the demise of the Joof paternal and Wagadou maternal dynasties of Baol with other Serer paternal dynasties who jointly ruled Baol the Fall paternal dynasty succeeded them hence the first Damels and Teignes titles of the kings of Cayor and Baol respectively from the Fall patrilineage were of Wagadou maternal descent They simply married into the old royal family and succeeded to the throne 10 11 The 11th century legendary figure Amar Godomat or Ama Godo Maat ne Ama Kodu Joof is a member of this family The Guelowar period edit Main article Guelowar nbsp Maad a Sinig Kumba Ndoffene Fa Ndeb Joof from The Royal House of Boureh Gnilane Joof King of Sine from c

Maad a Sinig Mahecor Joof and Maad Saloum Fode N Gouye Joof respectively 14 15 Maysa Wali and his family the maternal clan Guelowar fled Kaabu in 1335 following a dynastic struggle They were defeated

advisor to this noble Council for 15 years Maysa Wali managed to win the confidence and trust of the council and the common people He was nominated and elected by the council and the people as king of Sine He was the first Guelowar king of Sine He gave his sisters in marriage to the Serer nobility which sealed the union between Serer and Guelowar 16 It was the offspring of these marriages between the old Serer paternal noble clans and the Guelowar maternal clan of Kaabu that ruled the kingdom of Sine and later Saloum In this Guelowar period the Joof family one of the oldest Serer paternal noble clans provided many kings in the Kingdoms of Sine and Saloum the Joof paternal dynasty of Sine and Saloum The Joof family also founded three royal houses as follows in the order of foundation 17
