Editors' Note
We named this bed Amani, inspired by the word’s meaning. In original Arabic, it means "wishes" or "aspirations," — "dreams" we might call them in English. In Swahili, Amani carries the meaning of "peace." Modern Swahili — a Bantu language comprised of as many as 15 distinct dialects — derives as much as 40% of its vocabulary from Arabic. This considerable level of transmission is the result of a long history of commerce with Arab traders who introduced Islam to the region in the 9th century. For centuries, Swahili merchant cities participated in Silk Road trade, controlling much of the maritime traffic in the Indian Ocean through port cities such as Kilwa Kisiwani and Songo Mnara. These cities traded in precious commodities such as gold, silver, porcelain and perfumes with India, Arabia and China. As they spread, both Arabic and Islam went through various processes of assimilation — sometimes referred to as "Africanization" — as African nations and communities absorbed these cultural products, making them their own. Swahili incorporates its Arabic vocabulary into its Bantu grammar and syntax and has functioned for centuries as one of the primary languages of the region.
