Xhosa cattle-killing movement

The Xhosa cattle-killing movement was a mid-19th-century millenarian prophecy-led movement among the Xhosa that called for the mass slaughter of cattle and destruction of crops in the belief it would bring about the resurrection of ancestors and the expulsion of colonial settlers, ultimately resulting in a devastating famine.
