كلوا

Kulwa is a great coastal town. Most of its people are Africans, its houses are of wood, and its people follow the Shafi'i school. Ibn Battuta reports that Sofala lies half a month's journey from it, and that from it he took ship to Zufar al-Hamud. ¹

The name matches Kilwa Kisiwani in Tanzania, an inference by a researcher that has not yet been verified. An additional source is needed.
