Zulu regiments were known as “amabutho”, and the uThulwana regiment was formed in 1854, and was named after a Basuto chief. 

It was also known as ”Dust Raisers” or “Cover with Dust”

Formed around the 18th Century AD (as one of King Shaka's ''original Lions''), they occupied the all-important position of ''Chest'' in The Zulu Attack Formation called ''The Beasts Horns''. 

The Regiment was one of the largest – numbering around 3,000.


The uThulwana Regiment was a ''Front Line'' Zulu Military Formation of The Zulu Empire. 

The basic Zulu military formation, made up of several “amabutho” was known as an “Impi”

 

It was a white shield regiment in which Cetshwayo once served.
