This is thought to have taken place towards the end of his reign which lasted from 1816 to 1828.It is said that Shaka stopped to rest in the area, and had his personal attendant collect water from a nearby stream. This water was presented to King Shaka in a calabash. After Drinking the water he exclaimed "Kanti amanz'amtoti"(isiZulu: "So, the water is sweet").
