context_page_description: The Mountains of Kong were a non-existent mountain range charted on maps of Africa from 1798 through to the late 1880s. The mountains were once thought to begin in West Africa near the highland source of the Niger River close to Tembakounda in Guinea, then continue east to the legendary Central African Mountains of the Moon, thought to be where the White Nile had its source.
