Mathevula – Baloyi family they are the Altar of Chauke – Hlengwe family ,meaning all
big five families have their own Altar family whereby they all comes from different tribes
,that was the African secret. The big five families were Langeni, Hlave, Mthethwa,
Hlengwe and Xixangaxile with their Altars. Mostly the names of Tsonga people used are
the well-known nicknames not their birth names. Sometimes peoples are known by four
different names. Some when reciting their family tree they include even the brothers of
their forefather’s names. Some families they have the same names with others, as
someone’s surname is the same name of someone’s grandfather.
The Above Family is one of the big five families of Mabulandlela / Mhlahlandlela Tsonga
including their big five family Altar representing African big five animals. The big five
families were known as Kingdom before they met with the traditional first born tribe
which is Langeni Kingdom ,the big five families consist of Langeni Kingdom ,Hlave
Kingdom ,Mthethwa Kingdom, Hlengwe Kingdom and Xixangaxile Kingdom. The
Langeni Kingdom is divided into two parts which is the Kingdom leader and the family
leader. The traditional first born tribe of Africa meant to erect the African Altar which was
disturbed by colonisation during the scramble of Africa. The total leadership is equals to
thirteen, one traditional first born leader plus five family Leaders, plus five Altar family
leaders plus two carrying Angelica tree , then all twelve families became the Paramount
Chiefs not Kingdom only one King of Langeni Kingdom, Paramount Chiefs and Family
Chiefs under all Tribal Authorities which has been fallen the year 1914 because of
Colonisation.
Mabulandlela also known as Mhlahlandlela Tsonga Kingdom was fallen the year 1914
after land Act of 1913.From 1914 no one were allowed to mention the King or to recite
his family tree because of the witches. Witches were referred to Colonials, for an
example about Dingane Zulu when killing the Colonials at UMgungundlovu during the
naming of Blood River; he said “bulalani boke a ba thakathi” means kill all the witches
that was the African way to call white people. To date families doesn’t know or tells their
family tree because of witches using wrong explanation which is superstation. The big
five families include their Altar families representing African big five animals are as
follows: (Ndlovu family – Elephant animal, Hluvi tribe ,under Langeni Family of Hluvi
tribe, Nghonyama Family – Lion animal ,Nguni tribe of Zulu ka Malandhela under
Langeni Family of Hluvi tribe, Ngomani Family – Tiger animal ,Nguni of Mthethwa
under Mthethwa family of same tribe Nguni of Mthetwa, Lobwi Family – Rhino animal of
Kalanga Nation unknown tribe under Hlengwe Family, Novela Mtileni family – Buffalo
animal ,Hlave family of Hluvi tribe under Hlave family same tribe) some of the Altar
families come from different tribe. The tribe which was carrying African Angelica tree
was Xixangaxile and their carrier by Mhelembe Family.
The sub names with their praises have been collected with the assistance of the grants
from the Research Grand Board given by the respective Chiefs during 1938, 1958,
1971, 1982 and 1992 also written by AA Jacques at Swivongo Swa Vatsonga.
To ensure that people were not allowed to mention the Tsonga King, at the AA Jacques
book there is no Bila Mlangeni, Magoda Manganyi as Mavambe was the Home of
African Altar and Mavunda Hlave recitation, as Mavunda was the first born of Hlave.
Hlave also was a Head Chief under King Mhlahlandlela Langeni. The full information
downloads the 97 pages document. The document doesn’t have stories only have the
fact as there is no Nation without the King and History. Tsonga of Mabulandlela is the
core of Africa and Mavambe the home of African Altar.
