SUMMARY The research looks and investigates on how to build a Zulu homestead and how to look after it. It looks firstly on how to move from an old homestead to a new homestead as well as the manner in which it is named. Chapter one looks at the research aims, limitations and research methods. The research gives a background on how the Zulus build their homesteads. Chapter two looks deeply on how to move from an old homestead to a new homestead according to Zulu custom. The head of the kraal invites a witch doctor to put his/her pegs called izikhonkwane at night as a protection against wizards and lightning. The research looks at how they perform it. The Zulu huts are a round-dome shaped structure made by sticking a row of saplings in a circular trench some six inches deep and about fifteen feet in diameter. The Zulu huts everywhere are built on the same plan ever disturbing the customary arrangement of huts. Chapter three concentrates on the naming of homesteads which reflect the innate’s desire for peace, good health, joy and happiness. The research looks at the Zulu customary activities that are performed during the naming of a Zulu homestead. Chapter four investigates the way in which a King’s palace is built and the difference between the King’s residence and an ordinary person’s residence. Chapter five is the investigation of the following livestock, cattle, goats, sheep, chicken and dogs. Moreover their importance in Zulu and places where they are kept at night. Chapter six deals with the way in which a homestead had a hedge around it, main gate and small gates. Chapter seven covers findings of the research, recommendations and conclusion. | en_US |
