Etimoloxía (Inglés)

Herdado de Ottoman Turkish: یامیام

In summary

From Ottoman Turkish یامیام (yâmyâm) meaning also “Niam-Niam”, an obsolete name used by 18th- and 19th-century French and British travellers for the Azande, an ethnic group of North Central Africa. The name is said to mean “great eaters” in the Dinka language, supposedly referring to cannibalistic propensities formerly ascribed to the Azande.
