Xitsonga fun fact about June

This is the war season, when the chill settles over the land and daily life reshapes itself around the shortening days. People turn to the fields to harvest the winter crops, while relying on the sustenance gathered over the past nine months. Winter animals roam the land, becoming the focus of the hunt. Yet this is also a time of peril: clans with few resources may raid others, seeking to claim what they lack. The heat wanes, and the Southern African landscape — clear and cool — is ripe for conflict, making survival as much a matter of vigilance as of provision.
