The small rodent or mice(mbeva, mbeya, amagundwani) is a dualised totem representing two groups of people who are well known as Musoni (the main mouse), hwesamasango (a solitary mouse). The main mouse is common in the Save valleys around Buhera with people who are very intelligent, talkative, peaceful and quite unlike the later one solitary mouse which comprises of hostile people who are aggressive and enjoys solitary lives. They’re both good hunters, with good fighters and smart too. They are light in complexion, well built and beautiful women. The Hwesa people hail from Manyika near the Eastern highlands Nyamapanda boarder.

ReplyDeleteYou are right Hwesa are from Mozambique and settled along the Kairezi river in Nyanga, im sure after there was migration
DeleteWe are not from Mozambique,origionally from Hwedza and Chivi area,we migrated to Nyanga area because or conflicts and witchcraft then from Musoni we called ourself mhoni,that mice or rate with a black line at the back. We then called ourselves vana mudya masikati usiku ndehwe varoyi in relation to that mice that only feeds during the day

ReplyDeleteWhat's the difference with us - Katerere, excluding of caise6the differences in the "mbeva's"
ReplyDeleteThere is no difference. My grandma was a Hwesa. When you start citing you totem, there's a part you mention Hwesa Katerere. It's a place you hail from and I think it's in Manicaland, neat the borders. Most of the Hwesa Katerere are mixed race (coloured) or very light in complexion. My granny was mixed race.
