Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Thousands of emaSwati yesterday joined His Majesty King Mswati III and Her Majesty the Queen Mother, on the second day of the ongoing Little Incwala, inside Ludzidzini Cattle Byre.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Little Incwala is a build-up to the main Incwala, where emaSwati celebrate the harvest of the first fruit inside the cattle byre of the main royal residence. The members of the regiment of Lutsango, Imbali Ingatja, warriors as well as bokhololo came in numbers, so much that a first time attendee, would have mistaken yesterday for the main Incwala Day. The regiments were recognised by their voices in the rhythm of the songs.<\/p>\n

The King will dance at the main royal residence before proceeding to the other royal residences, ahead of commissioning Ingatja to fetch the sacred shrubs, known as lusekwane and the red leaves known as imbondvo, in a few days to come.<\/p>\n
