Nov. 25, 2018 7 The origin of the Bateizi At a glance. This document was summarized by Basil Kandyomunda, but was a result of research on the Bateizi clan, spanning 12 years since the 1980s up to 1998. This research received great help from Bateizi meetings, especially the one that happened on September 20, 1998 at Ruhinda when Bateizi from the areas of Rukungiri, Ruhinda, Bushenyi, Mbarara, Ntungamo, and Kabale met.

1 Note: Most of the names of the subclans of the Mubari clan listed in this book were non-existent when the earliest clan members first settled here. Only a few existed. We have used the names of these sub-clans as a representation of the sub-clans we have today so that people will know about them, and that they can be seen as sub-clans of people who existed then. Indeed, the sub-clans sprung up from the people who migrated from Ethiopia, then Tanzania, and finally settled here. The current clans and sub-clans share the same blood with the people of the earliest clans. This will help readers to learn of the totems of those who migrated and settled among the Banyankore and Bakiga.
