t-miracles3

RICH HISTORICAL CONTEXT

“iSimangaliso” meaning “miracles” derives from a rich historical context.

Named after the historical fable of “Ujeqe”. Ujeqe is the keeper of a Zulu King’s secrets and has to be buried with the King when he dies.
When King Shaka died, his Ujeke fled to Tongaland. Upon his return he said: “I saw wonders and miracles in the flat land and lakes of Thonga”.
From that follows an isiZulu saying that if you have seen miracles, you have seen what uJeqe saw.
