- The famous 🇬🇧British colonialist, Cecil John Rhodes is buried in the Matobo hills. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Rhodes’s ⚰grave sits atop a granite hill known to local inhabitants as “Malindidzimu,” a Khalanga word which translates to 👉“the hill of benevolent spirits”.
From the grave, there is an awe-inspiring 360°💟 view in every direction of the Matobo Hills. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💂Rhodes spent many an afternoon💭 pondering life’s great questions at this exact spot which he called “A view of the world.”
⠀⠀
It’s easy to see why the most powerful man in Africa,🌍 at the time, chose to be buried here.
Will the panorama💥 have the same effect on you?

Fixing and mounting railway lines was not for you and me, our forefathers, it was so he could loot our minerals, send them to the cape, and then ferried to England.
I wonder how some of our people celebrate these people that did all sorts of henious crimes to acquire our land
But they diveloped our couny in those years they're In charge,,we we've done nothing for the past 40 +years in charge
Do geologists know the origen of the round boulders? Were there once glaciers here?
Damn hittler was an artist Rhodes had a degree in art why are people that had something to do with art such imperialist do they succeed with whatever vision.
What of Allan Wilson grave
our history has missing peaces why was rhodes in Zimbabwe ,God allows 3 generations to move together to preserve info ,our places of african worship where destroyed rhodes did certain rituals those graves you mention are mathemetical planted why is the last bird of great zimbabwe not yet back when Mugabe brought one bird from germany we start to hear of germany gold shafts,our land coming back on 99 year lease coming out ,blacks owning gold mines ,surely after another 100year Rhodes grave should be a vault with information ,with symbols ,and why put a copper plate surely we should have modern technology to xray the contents of the vault like egyptian pyramids
Rhodes spent Zimbawe's assets improving Zimbabwe.
Thus making zambia and Malawi poor . thanks that emalgation never happened.

It was not his assets,
He took from the people,that's how one owns vast wealth, he literally owned the country Zimbabwe, what is Zim networth? Trillions and Trillions.
Give me the wealth of chiadzwa diamonds and see wat I will do for you.
That pluz Zim plates, couple gold mines haaa
Despite everything and his mistakes and exploitation of the region, he promoted and established an infrastructure which goes to show that not everything about colonialism was bad.
