What does unkulunkulu mean?
- Unkulunkulu
- Unkulunkulu (/uɲɠulun'ɠulu/) (isiZulu: the very great/high one) is the Supreme Creator in the language of the Zulu people. In classical, pre-colonial Zulu myth, Unkulunkulu brought human beings and cattle from an area of reeds. He created everything, from land and water to man and the animals. He is considered the first man as well as the parent of all Zulu. He taught the Zulu how to hunt, how to make fire, and how to grow food.With the arrival of Christian missionaries, Unkulunkulu became the name for the Christian supreme being. For Christian people, the name simply means "God". Other names include uMdali "Creator", uMvelinqandi "Before everything", analogous to umvelinqangi in the isiXhosa language.
