The Bangwaketse (also known as the BaNgwaketse, or Ngwaketse) are one of the eight principal tribes in the African nation of Botswana, and are ethnic Tswana. (The "Ba" or "Bo" prefix in African tribal names in southern Africa means "people of" or "people who speak". "Ma" means "person of".) Kanye is the original Bangwaketse village located in the Southern District settled in 1853, originally called Ntsweng Hill. The King of the tribe is King Malope II son of Seepapitso IV. The Bangwaketse people live in the arid mountainous region of Southern Botswana mentioned in the book Cherub: Guardian Angel. It is bordered by Moshupa, Lobatse, Jwaneng and is a 45-minute drive from Gaborone, the capital city of Botswana. The town is served by Kanye Airport. A documentary on the Bangwaketse royal family was filmed in 2003-2005: "The Queen's Courtyard".
