Tugela River

The Tugela River ((ズールー語:Thukela); (アフリカーンス語:Tugelarivier)) is the largest river in KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa. It is one of the most important rivers of the country.〔(Key rivers of South Africa )〕
The river originates in Mont-aux-Sources of the Drakensberg Mountains and plunges 947 metres down the Tugela Falls. The Mont-aux-Sources is also the origin of tributaries of two other major South African rivers, the Orange and the Vaal. From the Drakensberg range, the Tugela follows a route through the KwaZulu-Natal midlands before flowing into the Indian Ocean. The total catchment area is approximately .〔 Land uses in the catchment are mainly rural subsistence farming and commercial forestry.
==Tributaries==
The Tugela has a number of tributaries coming off the Drakensberg, the largest being the Mzinyathi ("Buffalo") River (rising near Majuba Hill), but also the Little Tugela River, Klip River (rising near Van Reenen Pass), Mooi River, Blood River, Sundays River (rising in the Biggarsberg) Ingagani River and Bushman River.〔〔(Thukela WMA 7 )〕 The Buffalo River joins the Tugela some east of Tugela Ferry at .
The Blood River was named by the Boers, led by Andries Pretorius, after their defeat of the Zulu king Dingane on 16 December 1838, when the river is said to have run red with the blood of Zulu warriors. Below the Blood River is Rorke's Drift, a crossing point and a battle site, in the Anglo-Zulu War.
