About This Record
What Was Written Down
The Ntshangase entered Eswatini under Masiphula Ntshangase, an induna of the Zulu king Mpande, and settled just north of the Phongolo; Masiphula commanded the Zulu side in a battle with Mngayi Fakudze's Swazi around 1836. Recorded from the sources named on this entry; the wording here is Sibaya's own.
