Malashe ka Khawuta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Malashe ka Khawuta (born late 1700s) was the younger son of King Khawuta and a younger brother of King Hintsa and Chief Bhurhu.[1]

As sub-chief of the Gcaleka, Chief Malashe was active in wars that Hintsa led the Xhosa nation in, functioning as Hintsa's advisor.

Malashe's descendants still hold royal status and head a sub-section of the Xhosa nation in the Centane and Willowvale areas.
