HOLIDAYS AND TRADITIONS

Culture of Botswana

Botswana doesn’t have much of a literary tradition; all that survives are ancient myths and poetry written in praise. Indigenous languages only started being written when Christian missionaries arrived in Botswana in the late 19th century. Indigenous tribal rituals are still being practiced today with cults holding their sway.
