Amangwane | Mankwane | Ngwane
Matebele a Hlongwane, who also call themselves Mankwane/Amangwane originally come from the Ngwane nucleus,though some of us have been incorporated into new tribes and clans because of colonialism and tribal expansions, we still remember our roots as Amangwane. Our clan praise has some southern sesotho because we have intermarried with them for hundreds of years and we have even adopted sesotho as our mother tongue. In Lesotho, there is a village called Mankoaneng,which translates to The Land of The Ngwanes,which proves that we have not forgotten our roots despite changing our home language from isinguni to sesotho
