Ndebele Ethnography

Let’s explore the Ndebele ethnography. This involves taking a deep dive into the people, culture and customs of the Ndebele.

Ndebele

Mafana was the first Ndebele chief whose history is known. Mhlanga, Mafana’s successor had a son named Musi. In the early 1600s, Musi decided to leave his relatives( who latterly came the Zulu nation) and settle in Gauteng near Pretoria.
Following the death of Chief Musi, his two sons argued about who would succeed him as leader of the lineage. ultimately, the lineage resolve into two groups the Manala and the Ndzundza.

The northern Manala remained while the Ndzundza, also known as the Southern Ndebele, traveled east and south. The two groups kept their distinctness as Ndebele.
During the reign of Ndebele chieftain Mabhogo in 1883, conflict erupted between the Ndzundza and the( Boer) Zuid- Afrikaansche Republiek. For eight months, the Ndebele hid in subsurface coverts inside their mountain bastion at Mapoch’s grottoes near Roossenaal as they defied a assault by escaping to subsurface warrens.
On occasion, Mabhogo’s enterprising dogfaces were suitable to cross the adversary lines without being seen in order to get water and food. still, after two womanish memebrs of the lineage had been ambuscaded and tortured in the near forestland, one revealed where Mabhogo was.
