He grew up in Qunu after his father was deposed as the chief of Mvezo. After his retirement, Mandela returned to Qunu.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Madiba heads back to Qunu )〕 In his autobiography, ''Long Walk to Freedom'', Mandela describes Qunu as the place where he spent the happiest moments of his childhood. The remains of three of Mandela's children were originally buried here, but were exhumed by one of his grandsons, Mandla Mandela. Mandla reburied the remains in Mvezo, the village of which he was chief. On 3 July 2013 the Eastern Cape high court ruled that the remains should be moved back to Qunu.〔(Mandla Mandela to go back to court over graves debacle ), ''Mail and Guardian'', Retrieved 6 May 2014〕 Shortly after this, King Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo relieved Mandla of his duties.〔(Mandla to be expelled - King Dalindyebo ), EWN, Retrieved 6 May 2014〕 On 15 December 2013, Mandela was buried in Qunu following a state funeral,〔("Mandela funeral brings together world's most powerful people" ).
