Mpondo is a name derived from one of the sons of a king named Sibiside of the abaMbo nation: It is said that the abaMbo tribe emerged from the lakes of a place called Lubhelu, and later migrated south across the Zambezi River until they reached a place called Mhlathuze (Now known as Zwaziland).

King Sibiside had many wives and many children. One of his sons was named Mpondo. It is said that when Mpondo was older and left home, he migrated south with a large number of people from the abaMbo nation.

Mpondo was now acknowledged as their king, and the movement of people changed their tribal name from abaMbo to amaMpondo, who settled in the a place now known as the Eastern Cape of South Africa. AmaMpondo still practice their culture today and are a strong and beautiful nation amongst many others in the world.
