Imwatso

By Crusader1307

The Xesibe Tribe is an off-shoot of The kwaZulu Peoples, and are located in Transkei, South Africa. In another form of ''accepted'' Spiritual Possession, Females of that Tribe used to invoke a Class of Demon-Spirits called The Inwatso. These ''formless'' Entities only took up residence in the bodies of Married Females, who had already produced children. The Spirits would reside in the Soul of the Woman. In return for it's ''home'', The Inwatso gave the Woman the power of Foresight. These special Women were often called upon to ''foresee'' future events that were important for The Tribe. The Inwatso was akin to the Ancient Greek ''Oracle'' in many forms.
