Izinganekwane ezingaziwa zeCherokee zisho izidalwa ezingaziwa ezinamakhono afana nocingo lwezokuxhumana kanye nokungabonakali. Baze balwa eceleni kwabo ngesikhathi sokulwa nabahlaseli.
AbakwaCherokee bakhuluma kakhulu ngabantu abangajwayelekile abaziwa ngokuthi amaNunnehi. AmaNunnehi nawo ayengaqondakali phakathi komhlaba or ngaphandle izinhlangano kanye nethonya elihle kulesi sizwe, ngisho nokuseseka phakathi nezimpi ezilwa nabahlaseli bendawo nabaseYurophu. AmaCheroqui noma amaCherokee abantu boMdabu base-Oklahoma, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee kanye neNorth Carolina.
AbakwaNunnehi
Abantu baseCherokee bangokomoya kakhulu futhi bakholelwa emazweni amathathu ahlukene: Izwe Eliphezulu, Leli zwe kanye ne-Underworld. Ngokusho kweCherokee, amandla kamoya ayatholakala futhi kulo mhlaba, umhlaba wenyama owumhlaba. Itholakala kuyo yonke imvelo: emadwaleni, emifuleni, ezihlahleni, ezilwaneni, njll. Ngisho nokwakheka komhlaba: emihumeni nasezintabeni.
AbakwaNunnehi bachazwa njengezidalwa eziyisisekelo futhi ezingabonakali, yize bengazikhombisa ngokuthanda kwabo. Baze bashintsha isimo sabo, saba sesimweni somuntu esingaphezulu seqhawe (elichazwe njenge “Ubukhosi”).
Babefana nabantu bomdabu base-United States, kepha babenokuthile “Okungaphezu kwemvelo” or “Okungaphandle komhlaba” aura. UNunne'hi usho "Abahambi", kodwa futhi “Abantu abahlala noma kuphi” ngoba babehlala emazweni angajwayelekile (ingaphakathi lezintaba, imihlaba engaphansi komhlaba nangaphansi kwemifula). Babonwa njengezidalwa ezinamakhono angavamile, njengokungabonakali okungenhla, i-teleportation kanye nokwethusa kakhulu ukungafi.
Basiza abahambi abalahlekile ogwadule noma abalimele kakhulu, abayiswa ezindaweni zabo ezingaphansi komhlaba ukuze belaphe. Ngisho namaCherokee athile ahlala nabo unomphela.
Basize amaCherokees ekulweni nabahlaseli
AmaNunnehi ayevame ukujoyina lesi sizwe saboMdabu baseMelika phakathi nezimpi ezilwa nezifiki noma abahlaseli baseYurophu. Eduze Nikwasi Mgqumeni, eNyakatho Carolina, kwaqubuka impi phakathi kwamaCherokees nesinye isizwe: Lapho amaCherokees eqala ukuhlehla ngendluzula endaweni yawo, isidalwa esingaziwa, kanye nelinye ibutho lempi, beza bezobhekana nabahlaseli; bamangazwa ukuba khona kwezinhlangano ezingabonakali (kodwa amaCherokees ayazi ukuthi amaNunnehi).
Indaba eqoqwe isazi se-ethnologist uJames Mooney encwadini yakhe yango-1898 Izinganekwane zeCherokee ikhuluma ngendlu yalezi zidalwa ezakhiwe phezu komgodi oyisiyingi womhlaba. Indlu yayiseduzane nedolobha elidala laseTugaloo futhi yayifana nezindlu zaseCherokee. Abantu ababehlala lapho babengabantu abangaphili - babengenamuntu. Noma nini lapho udoti noma udoti kulahlwa kuleyo ndlu, yayibukeka ihlanzekile ngemva kwamahora ambalwa. Amakoloni angamaNgisi nawo abhekana nesipiliyoni esifanayo esiyinqaba.
Babonwa njengama-humanoids anekhono elingavamile. Phakathi kwemizi eyabelwe abakwaNunnehi kukhona iGazi Mountain, eGeorgia, eduze neLake Trahlyta, iPilot Knob Mountain, iColorado, neMount Nikwasi. Eziningana zalezi zakhiwo zibhekwa njengezakhiwo zokwenziwa zasendulo zalezi zinhlangano.
Ngakho-ke kungenzeka yini ukuthi lawa maNunnehi kube izidalwa zakwamanye amazwe ezazixhumana namaCherokees njalo? Kwezinye izinganekwane zaseMelika, izinhlangano ezifanayo ziyashiwo, njenge “Izintuthwane” zamaNdiya angamaHopi.
