History of amaHlubi - the ancient Embo group
This is Part 1 of the story of how amaHlubi thrived in southern Africa, building a prosperous kingdom before the disruptions of the Mfecane. It explores their rich culture, influential kings, wealth creation, daily lives, and remarkable skills in rainmaking and traditional medicine.
Despite having friendly relations with both King Shaka and Dingiswayo, amaHlubi were destroyed by King Matiwane of amaNgwane. The lack of internal unity within the Hlubi royal house made it easier for their rivals to shatter the powerful kingdom.
AmaHlubi can now be found in the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu Natal, Lesotho and various other locations in South Africa.

    Great video....and highly informative. However i think it more fitting to call her a spiritual leader rather than a religious leader. The latter gives it a totally different meaning.

    This is a myth, no such human existed. Same as King Solomon...he too never existed. Literalisation of scripture is the evil work of ancient rulers in Rome that spread to Europe and to all the conquered indigenous people of the world. And by the way, ancient Ethiopia is not Abyssinia or Aksum. Sadly the wisdom encoded in scripture is now lost to humanity as people were zombified spiritually to identify with being subjects of divine families assigned by a "God" to rule over them...even that "God" is a personification.

    Matthew 12:38-42 The Sign of Jonah 38 Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law said to him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.” 39 He answered, “A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. 40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41 The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now something greater than Jonah is here. 42 The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, and now something greater than Solomon is here.
