Dunama I

Muhammed Dunama bin Hummay I (1092-1150) was the king of the Kanem–Bornu Empire and a member of the Sayfawa dynasty. He was born to Hummay and a Toubou wife and succeeded his father as king in 1097 when Hummay died in Egypt on the hajj. Dunama made the pilgrimage twice in his own right, each time leaving 300 slaves in Egypt as gifts for his hosts. He was succeeded by his son, Bir I of Kanem.

All Sayfawa dynasty kings named Muhammad are also called Dunama (and vice versa). The name likely came from a compound of Dun ("power" or "might" in Kanuri) and Aman (i.e, Ammon) the Berber god, according to historian H.R. Palmer.
