Means "place where buffaloes wait" in Malinké (or "small stool"). The name would have been given by a hunter who came to wait for the game in this place. This small settlement, on the way to Bamako, was the first town occupied by the French administration in its conquest from the north. Guinea had two points of entry: the Malian border and the Basse Côte. It was only in the 1930s that exploration really began. But the two world wars attracted the French to other fronts. Since then, Siguiri has become a prefecture, the last before the border with neighboring Mali.
