Final word on the BaKhurutshe

Like most Kalanga tribes, the Bakhurutshe have a Sotho/Tswana-speaking component and a Kalanga-speaking component. Those of the "Bakhurutshe" component predominantly speak Kalanga, while those of the "Bahurutshe" component predominantly speak Sesotho/Setswana. Why the two tribal components adopted two different names may not be very difficult to work out.
In the post "Ku Tsha means To dig" I presented two possible explanations as to what the task of the human workgroup "Bakhurutshe" was, under the Anunnaki:

1 As Ba(Ku)Lutshi, they gathered LUTSHI (tree bark) from the forest to be used for making rope to hoist gold miners and Chinese (Ba-Tsha-ina) from their work holes.

2 As Ba(Kulu)Tshi, they served as the seniors in mining/digging operations.

I reached the conclusion that given the fact that Ma(Kulu)kuSa (blasting supervisor) was not Khurutshe but Humbe, explanation 2 fell away; thus leaving explanation 1 as the only correct explanation.

I now believe my conclusion was not justified, primarily because certain aspects of Makulukusa's job could still have been subject to the Bakhurutshe being his seniors - e.g when he was being hoisted from below ground level by Bakhurutshe. The reason why Bakhurutshe could have been assigned the senior role in mining operations, i.e. the reason why possibilty 2 does NOT fall away, is that the lives of other mining cadres depended on the Bakhurutshe's rope-making and hoisting skills. If I was a soldier executing an assault on enemy combatants, I would feel a lot safer being covered by gunfire from my senior than from my junior! Or isn't that the way the military do it?

And so both possibilities 1 and 2 apply, with 2 being a natural consequence of 1. But initially, the core responsibility of Bakhurutshe was 1. It was at this time that their queen "MadaEn" (lover of the Lord), a daughter of Enki (possibly with a human woman) left Southern Africa for Egypt or Ethiopia (ka Mabunde) to get married.  She was accompanied by a large contingent of Bakhurutshe, who were probably going to get trained in rock masonry at Lalibela. MadaEn (Madene) never returned to Southern Africa. She died in north Africa, according to oral history.

By the time the Bakhurutshe returned to Southern Africa, they already had facial appearances of Ethiopians or north Africans. But they still called themselves Bakhurutshe, nevertheless. The component group that had stayed behind in Southern Africa however, had gradually changed from gatherers of LUTSHI to seniors-at-mining (BaWuluTshi/BaHuluTshi). This metamorphosis might have been driven partly by advancement in technology, such as using sisal instead of LUTSHI.

And so the Southern African Bakhurutshe, by then known as BaWuluTshi/BaHuluTshi ended up being BaHurutshe, due to Sesotho/Setswana corruption.
