Paul Friedrich Johann Moritz Pogge (24 December 1838 – 16 March 1884) was a German explorer in Africa. Pogge was born in Groß Roge, Mecklenburg-Schwerin. He studied law in Berlin, Munich and Heidelberg, where he obtained his doctorate. In 1865/66, he took his first journey to South Africa (Cape Colony, Natal) as a big game hunter.〔(Pogge, Paul Friedrich Johann Moritz ) Deutsche Biographie〕 He undertook two expeditions in Central Africa into the southern Congo Basin, the first between 1874 and 1876 and the second between 1880 and 1884. On the first journey he was accompanied by naturalist Alexander von Homeyer, and funded by the ''Deutschen Gesellschaft zur Erforschung Aequatorial-Afrikas''.〔 On his second journey he was accompanied by Hermann Wissmann, a trip in which the two explorers reached the site of Nyangwe on the Lualaba River. Also on the expedition, they became the first Europeans to come in contact with members of the Batwa.〔(The New international encyclopaedia, Volume 23 ) edited by Frank Moore Colby, Talcott Williams〕 He died in Luanda. == Publications associated with Pogge == * ''Im reiche des Muata Jamwo.
