File info[edit]
Caption | Bushman Assembly
The all-Bushman Local Spiritual Assembly of Tshasane, in the Kalahari Desert of Botswana, was elected at Ridván, 1973. From left to right, standing: Ci-!Gau; !'ea, treasurer; Titi, chairman; Siolo, secretary; Kaka. From left to right, seated: Matshipa; N!!g"ae-!Nobo; Baberi; Mpalo. The Local Assembly of Tshasane was first formed in 1972. N!!g"ae-!Nobo, seated second from left, died in childbirth since this photograph was taken. Realizing that a Bahá'í burial was necessary, the Bushman Bahá'ís complied. They read the "Remover of Difficulties" prayer which they had memorized in their own language, Hoã, and interred the body with the head facing north, toward the Shrine of Bahá'u'lláh in the Holy Land. |
