Books - The Religious System of the Amazulu


The Religious System of the Amazulu is a book by the English missionary Henry Callaway published in 1870. It is one of several books he wrote about the Zulu people and their beliefs.

The book is written in a question-answer format, in which Callaway questions various Zulu about topics which interested him. Generally, only the answers are given. The original publication of the book contained both the original Zulu conversations, with the English translations printed alongside.

The book is divided into four parts:
  • Unkulunkulu, which concerns the creator Unkulunkulu and the Zulu story of creation;
  • Amatonga, which concerns the Zulu traditions of ancestor worship;
  • Izinyanga Zokubula, which concerns the traditions of diviners among the Zulu;
  • and Abatakato, which concerns the Zulu customs of medical magic and witchcraft.
