You seem to have dÓne your research my good sir, I am honored, It comes to my attention that you regard Dlamini older than Nguni, which at some stage contravens the fact that Nguni himself gave birth to Xhosa, Zulu, And Swazi, and Dlamini on the other hand is a descendant of the Swazi people, that at a later stage migrated and scattered themselves to the other to tribes (Xhosa, Swazi) , me (The_African_Son) being one of the youngest generation of the Dlamini descendants, I have always been told by so many elders that, I came from eMbo, however, some speculations rose, and that it came differently that I ended being Xhosa (but Dlamini by birth) because of the fact that a zulu king known as Shaka kaSenzangakhona, attacked almost a large number of sub-tribes that belong under the Swazi nation during the wars of Imfecane, my tribe (the AmaZizi, descendants and sub-tribes of Dlamini) then migrated to the south along the Cape, were there were xhosa people, which is why I enÐed up being Xhosa, I respect the manner in which you know such histoty. Sir Strydom The_African_Son
