The iNcwala or First Fruits Ceremony in 1970

Climbing trees

Boys climbing trees to gather more leaves (“emacembe”) to cover the “inhlambelo” enclosure as part of the iNcwala ceremonies, although these are not the right kind of leaves; the correct leaves are those of the “mbondvo” shrub that also grows around Lobamba.
