Khesetoane Modjadji III (1869 – 1959) became the third Rain Queen from the South African Balobedu nation of the South African Limpopo Province.
She was preceded by Rain Queen Masalanabo Modjadji II and succeeded by Rain Queen Makoma Modjadji IV.
In 1894 her predecessor, Masalanabo Modjadji, committed ritual suicide by ingesting a poison, Maselekwane had done the same to pass her spirit and power to the next rain queen.
She was the longest reigning Rain Queen for being on the throne for 64 years.
Khesetoane is believed to have cursed the rest of the Rain Queen lineage because of her refusal to commit ritual suicide when the time came upon nearing her death.
