*BagaMogane assimilated into Mapulana in the 1800’s. Their forefather, Ngobeni, came with the White gold miners who came to Pilgrim’s Rest. Ngobeni was a Shangaan. Amongst Mapulana he was called Kobeng as they could not pronounce his name. His nickname was Mogane. Because of his privileged position as a translator, and with the help of his masters he assumed chieftancy of a group of bagaMashigo which was under Kaishang. Their praise poem Mogane o edja togolo ya Mashego attest to this peculiar arrangement. The poem means that bagaMogane eat a type of mielie porridge which belonged to Mashego.

Hi I need help with thibela clans
Oh yes, my father used to tell us that we are actually descended from the Kenya region of Africa as Mashego. To me that made sense as our totum is the Lion and of course we know that area of Africa and the South to be endowed with lions and our people are said to coexist with lions in as harmonious a way as possible. Thank you
I must go to Casteel too...
