Map showing the route of David Livingstone across central Africa via the Zambesi River to the east coast, 1857. David Livingstone (1813-1873) was a Scottish explorer and medical missionary in Africa. He organized expeditions into the interior of Africa from Botswana, discovered and named Victoria Falls, and located the mouth of the Zambesi River. He mapped much of interior Africa, wrote accounts of the inhabitants, and campaigned against slavery. Along with Henry Morton Stanley, he became a celebrity in the eyes of a Victorian public captivated by their explorations.
