Swazi culture

Swazi culture, originating from Eswatini, emphasizes community, respect, and tradition. It values oral history, ceremonies, and King authority, with the annual Reed Dance celebrating female purity and cultural identity. Music, dance, and beadwork are integral, reflecting social status and heritage. Elders are respected, and Ubuntu—a philosophy of shared humanity—shapes social interactions. Festivals and rituals reinforce social bonds and uphold customs passed through generations, blending modern influences with deep-rooted traditions that define Swazi identity.
