    WITH AESOP ALONG THE BLACK BORDER, Ambrose E. Gonzales, 1924
    Gullah was the patois spoken by the Black Americans living on the sea-islands and the tide-water coastal strip bordering South Carolina and Georgia. This group, both on account of their origin and because of certain highly specialized local conditions of environment and isolation, early came to constitute a distinct type among the African American population of the South, possessing marked individuality of appearance, customs, folklore, and language.
