A few weeks ago, we had a very big event that took place in my village, Ga-Mphahlele. They were crowning the chief and handing him his throne. This obviously does not take place like it would in all the movies we've seen. This was done in the traditional manner, the Pedi traditional manner to be exact.
We call them the GA-lands because if you meet anyone from limpopo and ask them where they from, their response would be GA- mang mang /someone.
Took a few snaps with my phone, thought I'd share them

beautiful pics, its always good to be reminded on what real culture and tradition's all about. this TV's tend to corrupt us and tell our stories wrong.
