South Africa, Zulu Girl,1882

Zulu girl. In the Zulu family it is the duty of the wife to bring the children up and children are taught from an early age to respect elders and never speak unless spoken to. The wives are subservient to the husbands, bringing them their food before retiring to their own quarters. The husband will eat his fill and leave the rest for the remainder of his family. Girls are slowly introduced to the family chores by first learning how to carry water using a small gourd. She learns to carry the gourd on her head by means of braided supports that her mother applies to her head. In the field, she is taught how to plant and reap the crops and is given her own hoe when she is eleven. By this age, she is capable of making a fire, preparing some simple dishes and looking after her younger brethren. Image taken from page 373: A Holiday in South Africa by Ralph Watts Leyland, 1882.
