Who were “The People Who Disappeared”? 🌫️ In this captivating episode of The Shona Peoples, we uncover one of the most fascinating legends in Zimbabwean history — the story of how the name “Shona” may have been born from mystery, faith, and survival.
According to Shona oral tradition, as fierce Ndebele warriors advanced to raid villages, a great miracle occurred. A thick mist (mhute) rolled in, covering the land — and when it cleared, the villagers were gone, vanished without a trace.
Awed by what they witnessed, the Ndebele are said to have called them “Tshona,” meaning “the people who disappeared.” Over time, that word evolved into “Shona.”
Join us as we explore this ancient legend of Mhondoro spirits, ancestral protection, and divine intervention, revealing how spiritual power and resilience defined the Shona people’s identity.
Learn how Shona history, language, and belief systems preserve the echoes of this miraculous past — and what it means for Zimbabwe’s cultural legacy today.
