EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the poignant moment of historical significance as King Cetewayo of the Zulus (1826-1884) was reinstated to his throne during a ceremony held at Intonyanere on January 29, 1883. The Zulu monarch had lost his kingdom following the devastating conflict with the British in 1879, known as the Zulu Wars. The war began when the British, under the leadership of Sir Theophilus Shepstone, sought to extend their colonial influence into Zululand. The Zulus, under the command of King Cetewayo, fiercely resisted the British invasion, resulting in a series of brutal battles. The defeat of the Zulus in 1879 led to the exile of King Cetewayo and the dismantling of his kingdom. However, in an attempt to quell the ongoing resistance and maintain peace, the British government decided to restore Cetewayo to his position as king, with the hope that he would help maintain order and stability in the region. The ceremony depicted in this photograph marks the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the Zulu people. King Cetewayo, dressed in traditional regalia, is seen sitting on a throne, surrounded by British officials, including Sir Theophilus Shepstone, who is standing to his right. The image conveys a sense of hope and renewal, as the Zulu people welcomed their beloved king back to his rightful place, despite the challenges and hardships they had faced in the recent past. This photograph is an important historical document, offering a glimpse into the complex and tumultuous relationship between the British and the Zulus during the late 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact that colonialism had on African societies and the enduring resilience of the people in the face of adversity.
