The ancestors of the Ganda were people of mixed origins who migrated to their present location -- Buganda province in Uganda -- between the 13th and 16th centuries. Oral histories of Buganda chronicle a succession of 36 kings beginning with Kintu, who scholars reckoned immigrated to Buganda in the 14th century. At the time of European contact Buganda was a powerful kingdom.  The Ganda are primarily agricultural. The Ganda speak a Bantu language called Luganda. The Ganda are primarily an agricultural society; their staple crops are bananas and yams.
