Product description

This blanket is a symbol of the importance of the Cow to the Basotho community and shows the cows in the center and the step of the hoof around its design. It is with this blanket that we make a reminder that the Basotho are "ma ana khomo in the Lord" as they say; A cow follows the Lord, when it dawns in the village, we see each other!"

The Basotho are a race that loves the cow in a perfect way and they use it in many things in their lives. This cow is used when families are reunited by way of marriage, and it is a boon to the Basotho community during famine because it provides meat, milk, and clothes with its cow as if it could not till the fields. At festivals and deaths, the Sotho slaughter a cow as a sign of gratitude and to accompany the deceased and cover him with its cow as a blanket for his last journey.

When the chiefs don't agree, some of them beat and give a few cows (one of them is acceptable) according to tradition, which is a sign that the war is over. It stands for the methods that the first King Moshoeshoe used on his way to build the Basotho nation. The English proverb says; "The cow is a god with a wet nose" and this directly points to its importance in society. And the word about a cow is used as a greeting among the people, when someone hits them and says "Cows!" when he met people on the streets or in the city or even in the gathering of calls.
