Tshiwo
Tshiwo was a paramount chief of the Xhosa in the late 17th century and the father of Phalo. During his rule Xhosa settlement continued westwards towards the Fish River. He died around 1702, before Phalo was born, and the regent Mdange defended the infant heir's claim against his half-brother Gwali.
