Kwena tribe

Kwena and his followers settled at Tebang, now called Heidelberg.

Kgabo II led a small group of Bakwena and crossed the Madikwe River and founded a tribe on the lands of the Bakgatla tribe (whose totem was the blue monkey) which they drove away, modern day Botswana.

As the result of a split, several tribes like the Ngwato and Ngwaketse.
