Ulwaluko

ukusoka ngokwesintu

Ulwaluko, bendabuko ukusoka futhi Ukuqalwa ifomu ebuntwaneni sibe abantu abadala, kuyinto Ukuqalwa emkhubeni yasendulo (nakuba hhayi kuphela) ngokufaka amaXhosa, futhi ngokuvamile kwenziwa eNingizimu Afrika.Isiko ngokwesiko kuhloswe ngalo njengesikhungo sokufundisa, ukulungiselela abesilisa abancane ngemithwalo yemfanelo yobudoda. [1] Ngakho-ke, amathwasa abizwa ngokuthi abakhwetha ngesiXhosa : aba kusho iqembu, kanti i- kwetha kusho ukufunda. Eyesilisa oyedwa eqenjini waziwa ngokuthi umkhwetha.Owesilisa ongakatholakali ubizwa ngo- inkwenkwe (umfana), kungakhathalekile ukuthi uneminyaka emingaki, futhi akavunyelwe ukuba yingxenye yemisebenzi yabesilisa efana nemihlangano yesizwe.

Isiko lokuqalisa livame ukwenziwa ngasekupheleni kukaJuni / ekuqaleni kukaJulayi noma ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba / ekuqaleni kukaDisemba. [3] Ngesikhathi senqubo yesiko udokotela ohlinzayo wendabuko ( ingcibi ) ngokuhlinzwa ususa ijwabu . Ngemuva kokusikwa, isikhathi sokuhlukaniswa okulandelayo sithatha cishe inyanga eyodwa futhi sehlukaniswe izigaba ezimbili - kepha lokhu akuvamile ukwenzeka ezikhathini zanamuhla kanye / noma ezindaweni ezisemadolobheni, lapho kuvame ukuhlala okungenani amaviki ama-4.Ngezinsuku eziyi-7 zokuqala abakhwetha bavalelwa eqhugwaneni (bhoma) futhi ukusetshenziswa kokudla okuthile, ngokwesibonelo inyama, kunqunyelwe, kepha lokhu kungahluka njengoba imizi ethile inezinkolelo zayo noma izindlela zokwenza izinto.Amanzi nawo angavinjelwa.Lesi sigaba sigcina ngomkhuba wokukhululwa, lapho kudedelwa khona amatheko okudla, okukhomba ushintsho esigabeni sesibili esihlala amasonto amabili kuya kwamathathu.Ngalezi zigaba amathwasa abhekwa yikhankatha (umlindi wendabuko).Ukuphela kwesikhathi sokuzihlukanisa kuqala lapho abafana benxuswa ukuba bagijimele emfuleni bayozigeza, futhi, kuye ngendawo.Kushe iqhugwane (iBhoma) nempahla yamathwasa okubalwa nezingubo zabo.Lokhu kufanekisela ukubukeka kwangaphandle okusha abaqalayo okufanele bakuthathe.Kuyisiko ngisho ukuthi abathwalwayo bagqoke ngendlela ehlelekile isikhathi esithile ngemuva komkhuba.Ithwasa ngalinye lithola ingubo entsha manje selibizwa ngokuthi "ikrwala" (ubunye) okusho ukuthi umuntu omusha noma amakrwala . (ubuningi) (amadoda amasha). [4]Amadoda angaqaliwe abizwa I nkwekwe.

Ukukhathazeka kwezempilo

Okungenani abalethimba angama-969 ashonile ngenxa yezinkinga ezibangelwe yisiko kusukela ngo-1995. Izibalo ezinembile azitholakali ngenani lokunqunywa kwe-penile, kepha kulinganiselwa ukuthi inani lazo liphindwe kabili kunenani labashonile. [5]Iningi lokufa kanye nezinkinga kungumphumela wokungakwazi ukusebenza kochwepheshe bendabuko. [3]Lesi yisizathu esenza ukuthi ikakhulukazi amaMpondo athinteke kakhulu ngokufa kanye nezinkinga.AmaMpondo enza lesi siko kwaze kwaba yilapho iNkosi uFaku iwenqabela ngawo-1820s ngemuva kokulahlekelwa amadodana akhe amaningi ngenxa yezinkinga.Izikole zokuthwasa ziphinde zavela ngawo-1980 nawo-1990, kanti isiko leli seliqhutshwa ngezinga elikhulu.
