Izithakazelo zakwa Maluleka Clan Names History and Origin
Nsanis are well known for claiming they are directly related to Malawi’s Paramount and his immediate family, yet on phonological grounds it is impossible to trace how their clan names could have originated here.
Bryant’s list contains several clans which appear to have no discernible origin, such as Njobvu and Ndlovu which both mean elephant. This could be the result of both linguistic evolution as well as clan names merging through isitakazelo.

Gaza, located in the Middle East on ancient trade and maritime routes, flourished during antiquity as a bustling port and city that can be found prominently throughout biblical texts. Alexander the Great besieged Gaza for over two years until eventually taking control himself and imposing a strict regime over its citizens.
In the 20th century, Gaza became part of Mandatory Palestine under British control and experienced rapid growth during this time. As part of that conflict between Jews and Palestinians in 1948, it eventually came under Israel’s control after taking control after an extended war; currently Israel maintains an air and naval blockade against it.
