Izintaba ezimangalisayo, izilwane zasendle kanye nomlando wothando
Izivakashi zavota i-gencotic glen yothando kakhulu. Thola ukuthi kungani.
Izintaba ezinamabala, ezingenalutho zeGlencoe zibheke phansi, zimnyama futhi zingamthetheleli, endaweni enesizungu esinezintabeni zasemadwaleni amadwala nezindawo ezingenalutho. Kukhona ama-Munros angu-8 (izintaba zaseScotland ezingaphezu kwamamitha angaphezu kuka-3 000), ama-flora awo adlulile esikhathini eside esidlule avuleke cishe ngezimvu nezinyamazane. Edume kakhulu nabalimi behlathi, lokhu kungenye yezintaba zasendulo zaseScotland, izinsalela ze-caldera yase-volcanic zenza iminyaka engaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-450 edlule.
Ezingxenyeni zeScot Gaelic, yikhaya elimangalisayo le-Celtic hero Fingal nendodana yakhe i-Ossian, ekhunjulwa emgodini wase-Ossian, isici esikhulu futhi esabekayo ku- Aonach Dubh (i-Black Ridge), ingxenye yeGlencoe massif eyaziwa nangokuthi abathathu.
Kodwa iningi elibi kakhulu, futhi elibi kakhulu, lithi udumo luyisayithi le-Glencoe Massacre kaFebruwari 13, 1692.
I-Glencoe Massacre
Kuyindaba eyinkimbinkimbi yobuhlanga, inzombusazwe kanye nokukhwabanisa kodwa ngizohamba ngidlulisele okungenani amathambo angenalutho.
Ama-MacIains omndeni wakwaMacDonald ayehlala eGlencoe amakhulu eminyaka. Babelethwe ezweni lokhokho owalwela eceleni kukaRobert the Bruce eBannockburn. Ngesinye isikhathi, ama-MacDonalds aphakathi kwezizwe ezinamandla kunazo zonke e-Highlands futhi aphethe isihloko seNkosi yama-Isles. Abaphikisana nabo bendabuko kwakunguCampbell, futhi bebonke babenezizukulwane zokuziqhenya okukhulu okwakubangelwa ukuhlaselwa kwezinkomo kanye nokugqugquzela izindawo zomunye nomunye.
Mhlawumbe kufana ne-Hatfields ne-McCoys.
Ngasekupheleni kwekhulu le-15 leminyaka, i-MacDonalds yayilahlekelwe amandla amaningi. Ngo-1493, amaCampbell asiza uJames IV, uStewart King waseScotland, ukuqeda iNkosi yaseMacDonalds. Amazwe abo, kuhlanganise noGlencoe athathwa yiCrown.
Ngemuva kwalokho, i-MacDonalds yayingekho isimangalo somthetho emazweni abajwayele ukulima.
Kodwa babambelele kuwo ngamandla enkemba. Baba abaqashi bezikhulu eziningana ezahlukahlukene.
Iphutha Eliyingozi?
Okwenzekile ngokulandelayo kunokudideka. Inzondo yezombusazwe yanda phakathi kweCampbell kanye ne-MacDonalds phezu kwethonya likaCampbell enkantolo futhi njengengalo yokuSungulwa kwamaHlandi. Khona-ke, ngekhulu le-17, i-MacDonalds yakhetha ukulahlekelwa yiJacobite ngokumelene neNkosi yamaProthestani iNkosi u-William wase-Orange, inkosi yaseNgilandi naseScotland. Lapho iNkosi uJacob III yamaKatolika ebalekela eNgilandi yezwekazi, basekela amaKatolika.
Ngo-1691, ekhathele konke ukuhlaselwa nokulwa okuqhubekayo eScotland, iNkosi uWilliam yaxolela izinkampani zase Highland ezazivukele uMbuso uma ziyeka ukuhlukumeza omakhelwane zazo futhi zavuma ukufungela ukuzithoba phambi komantshi ngoJanuwari 1, 1692. Okunye, iNkosi eyathembisiwe, yayizoba ukufa.
Inhloko yenkampani yaseMacDonald yaqhubeka isikhathi eside kodwa kungenzeka yavuma. Ngeshwa ngendlu yakhe, waya enqabeni engafanele ukufunga isifungo - Inverlochy eduze Fort William esikhundleni esikhundleni Inveraray eduze Oban. Ngesikhathi esifinyelela ku-Inversary, isikhathi sokugcina sasiqedile ngezinsuku ezingu-5.
Ngemva kokuthatha isifungo, uMacDonald wacabanga ukuthi umndeni wakhe uphephile.
Kodwa empeleni umyalelo wokubaqothula usuvele unikezwe futhi ibutho lamasosha angu-130 lithunyelwe eGlencoe.
Ukukhohliswa Kwokungenisa Izihambi
Okwenza ukubulawa kwabantu eGlencoe kube kubi kakhulu ukuthi imindeni yaseMacDonald yayinomholi wayo, icabanga ukuthi iphephile. Bamukela amasosha emizini yabo lapho bebavakashela khona izinsuku ezingu-10. Ngalobo busuku ngoFebruwari 12, emibhalweni eyimfihlo (abanye bathi kusuka ku-Capbell captain, abanye bathi kusuka kuKhe ngokwakhe ngokwakhe) amasosha avuka abulala phakathi kuka-38 no-40 MacDonalds, amadoda, abesifazane, izingane kanye nabantu asebekhulile njengoba belele emibhedeni yabo. Bonke abanye babaleka ezintabeni. Indaba ethandwayo yilapho bafela khona lapho behlushwa noma balambile. Kodwa, kungenzeka ukuthi bahlakazeka ezintabeni nasemaphandleni ababebazi kahle (emva kwezizukulwane njengezigqila nezimbongolo) futhi basinda.
