Ngaba Ucinga Ukuba Unobubi? Nazi iKhitshi ezazinjengekhulu leminyaka elidlulileyo

Khawufane ucinge ukuba ngesiquphe uhanjiswe ubuyiswe ngexesha li-100 leminyaka, usiya kwindlu kakhokho wakho. Uninzi lwamagumbi luqhelekile: izitayile azikho zale mihla, ngokuqinisekileyo, kodwa useto olusisiseko luyafana. Ikhitshi, nangona kunjalo, lahlukile. Bonke abadlali abaphambili bakhona - isinki, isitovu, uhlobo oluthile lwesikhenkcezisi - kodwa azikaguquki ncam kwiimo zazo zale mihla. Kwaye yonke ikhitshi, iswele iikhabhathi ezisemgangathweni kunye neetafile esiziqhelileyo ukubona, iyamangalisa nayo. Esi sithuba sesokuqala kuthotho lwezihlanu apho siza kuvavanya ukuvela kwekhitshi, isitayile kunye nezobuchwephesha, kule minyaka ilikhulu idlulileyo. Yiza nam, ukuba uyathanda, kuhambo oluncinci kwimbali yoyilo.

Unyango lweeNdlu mihla le

Idosi yakho yemihla ngemihla yezithuba zethu eziphezulu, iingcebiso kunye namaqhinga, ukhenketho lwendlu, ngaphambi nasemva kotshintsho, izikhokelo zokuthenga, kunye nokunye.

Ukujika kwenkulungwane yama-20 yayilixesha lokuphucuka okumangalisayo ekhaya, ngakumbi ikhitshi. Phakathi kowe-1900 nowe-1920, uninzi lwezindlu ezixekweni nasezidolophini zazidibene nenkqubo yamanzi kamasipala, eyayisenza ukuba ubomi ekhitshini bube lula kakhulu. Ukufika kweendawo zegesi kwakuthetha ukuba, ubuncinci kwabanye babanini bamakhaya, iintsuku zokukhotyokiswa ngumlilo kwiinkuni ezishushu okanye izitovu zamalahle bezidlulile.
