Mambo Hills: Historical and Religious Significanceconsiders the sacred site to the north-east of Bulawayo that is also known as Intaba zi ka Mambo or Manyanga.

Officials of the Mwali Religion that is practised there took leading roles in the War of the Red Axe of 1896, which
nearly ended British South Africa Company rule in Southern Rhodesia.

In this path-breaking study, Marieke Clarke draws on oral tradition as well as archival material to write the history, up to recent times, of this area that has importance across Zimbabwe.
