Research Now: Tchiliwandele and the Making African Connections Project
Description
Tchiliwandele’s role as Soba meant that his permission, and help, was needed for the sisters to collect in his territory. Most of the 100 objects associated with him were collected from other people in his homestead and the surrounding area, who were under his protection. Diana and Antoinette relied on a network of Soba’s and other leaders to provide access to people and to allow them to move freely. Tchiliwandele was introduced to the sisters by his half-brother Kanguli, another Soba, who also worked with Diana and Antoinette.
