Kgwanyape

There are three seasonal rivers crossing Moshupa, the Mosope, Hatshelatladi(Gatsalatladi), and Monnaamme, and Kolwane further in the north. The Mosope River is legended the host of a Kgwanyape (a dragon, called Bushi, Seriri, or Noga ya metsi. The villagers avoid crossing the Mosope River, particularly at night where the river leaves the Phuting/Kgosing mountain for fear of the Kgwanyape. This place, called Lefikeng, or just 'hikeng' has a large rock outcrop curiously balanced upon the river banks with a perennial pond underneath it. Although villagers avoid this place, visitors venture there, giving rise to the local belief that the 'Kgwanyape' turns into a white lady and sunbathes during the day.
