Ilafy is the nearest hill to [[Antananarivo]] and was the capital of [[King Andrianjafy]], who was the maternal uncle of Nampoina. It was there that [[Jean Laborde]] made his first gun, shortly after his arrival, in association with another Frenchman, [[Droit]], who was already working there in about 1832 on behalf of [[Queen Ranavalona I]].
