Historia
Katika karne ya 19 Nkhotakota ilikuwa kundi la vijiji vilivyotumika kama soko la wafanyabiashara wa watumwa. Waafrika mbalimbali walikutana hapa na Waswahili kutoka mwambao wa Bahari Hindi na Waarabu.[1]
Misionari David Livingstone alitembelea mji mara mbili kwenye miaka 1861 na 1864 na kuleta taarifa juu ya ubaya wa biashara ya watumwa hadi Ulaya. Kuna miti miwili inayokumbukwa kama "Livingstone tree" ambako anasemekana alijadiliana na na mkuu wa Waarabu Salim bin Abdullah [2] Baadaye rais wa Malawi Hastings Banda alitoa hotuba chini ya mti mwingine huko Nkhotakota katika miaka ya 1960, huu unaojulikana kama Mti wa Livingstone. [2] Mji huu ulikumbwa na mafuriko ya 2001, na ulikuwa eneo lililoathiriwa zaidi katika eneo la Kati la Malawi. [3] Leo, Nkhotakota ndio mji mkubwa wa kitamaduni wa Kiafrika nchini Malawi [4] na una ushawishi mkubwa wa Waswahili-Waarabu. [5]
