  • Description: It is significant that an Ndau man from the South East of Southern Rhodesian on hearing these songs claimed that the style of singing and the sound of the words were very like his own. It is believed that the five related tribes of Southern Rhodesia, now called Shona a common Hima strain from the north, and may well indicate a link with the legend of the Hima Bachwezi, who, the Rundi and Tutsi maintain, came down with them from the north but did not stay and went on south. The features of the singers showed a strong Hamite strain although clearly semi-Bantu. The fourth song has unusally clever little melody. These people come from the border of Rundi-Urundi (Rwanda) in Ngala district. Topical song, with clapping

  • Description: This song "I go for Cherono" is about a woman who went to fetch a girl called Cherono and was met on the path. When asked what she was doing she replied "Sore cherono". This word Sore "I go for" sounds like the English word 'sorry' and now implies a double meaning, as the English word has slipped into the local language. The girls were doing a jerky little dance as they sang which is reflected in their singing. Children anywhere are usually poor subjects for recording and there are no exception. These two items are included to show how small Kipsigis girls perform Both songs show a possibility of school (foreign) influence. Topical song

Throughout the thesis this species is referred to as the pine. The object of the investigation has been to determine whether these communities are natural or not.
