Muconda

Muconda lies in the wooded plateau country of the upper Kasai basin, within the wider Lunda and Chokwe cultural region. Oral tradition associates the area with Txinguri, brother of Lueji, a figure in the stories of Lunda origins. The tradition connects his descendants with the line of Mwatxissengue Watembo. Such narratives link the histories of local rulers to a broader world of kinship and authority across the Lunda lands.
