Makateeskop, a hill between Paulpietersburg and Lüneburg, KwaZulu-Natal

Summary[edit]

Description
Afrikaans: Makateeskop (1 737 m) word hier vanaf Lüneburg, sowat 16 km noordwaarts, gesien. Dit is 'n oostelike uitloper van die Elandsberg-hooglande, op die regterskouer van die bo-Phongolorivier, KwaZulu-Natal. Die Ignite Charcoal Factory is in die voorheuwels geleë. Die heuwel was ook by tye bekend as Makati's Kop, Eloya of Ronde Kop, maar moet na regte miskien Makhataskop wees, want dit blyk van Makhatha ka Ndlukazi (ook: Makhatha Shabalala) afgelei te wees.[1] Hy was van die Shabalala-stam van die Hlubi-volk, nasate van die eMbo wat hul c. 1650 hier gevestig het. Makhatha was 'n Hlubi-induna / opperbevelhebber van die iziYendane-regiment onder koning Bhungane II (regeer 1760-1800). Die iziYendane, die mees gevreesde regiment tydens sy bewind, is in hierdie gebied aan die noordgrens van Hlubi-gebied gestasioneer.[2] Gevolglik suggereer die naam van die heuwel nie die Makatese (ook: Mantatese) nie, wat naamlik 'n onverwante groep in die hoëveld was, wat tydens die Mfecane verstrooi geraak het.
English: Makateeskop (1,737 m) is seen here from Lüneburg, some 16 km away. It is an easterly outlier of the Elandsberg highlands, on the right shoulder of the upper Phongolo River, KwaZulu-Natal. The Ignite Charcoal Factory is located in its foothills. The hill has also been known at times as Makati's Kop, Eloya or Ronde Kop, but perhaps it should be Makhata's Kop, as it appears to take its name from Makhatha ka Ndlukazi (also: Makhatha Shabalala) of the Shabalala clan of the Hlubi people.[1] They were descendants of the eMbo, who arrived here c. 1650. Makhatha was a Hlubi induna / commander-in-chief of the iziYendane regiment under King Bhungane II (ruled 1760–1800). The iziYendane, the most-feared regiment during his reign, was posted in this area along the northern border of Hlubi territory.[2] Consequently the hill's name does not suggest the Makatees (also: Mantatees), a completely different group native to the highveld, who were scattered during the Mfecane.
