Description

[Source - Henry Fagan for FHYA, 2021: Two historical accounts written by R. M. Hook drawing on the evidence of two African interlocutors, Walaza and Mathlomahulu. Walaza's evidence recalls the Matablele group that broke away from Dingiswayo's Mtethwa prior to the reign of Shaka. Mathlomahulu's evidence recalls conflict between the Ngwane and Hlubi groups during the reigns of Mthimkhulu and Matiwane.]

Hook on 23 February 1880 and in April 1880 drawing on evidence acquired from two elderly African interloctors, Walaza and Mathlomahulu. The evidence was extracted and prefaced by Herodotus Australis for The Cape Montly Magazine. Published as part of The Cape Monthly Magazine vol. III, July to December 1880, by J. C. Juta in Cape Town, 1880, pages 161-164. A copy of the magazine was acquired by the University of Pretoria's Library Services at an unknown date.
