Talk:Mumpolokoso

Mumpolokoso is Mporokoso
The previous Wikipedia entry stated that Mumpolokoso was a town located at 9°54' S 29° 56' E and this information was been picked up and repeated by a numerous other online encyclopedias and geographical place names sites. However Google Earth shows no town at this location on the southern banks of the Kalungwishi, only villages and chitemene cultivation (checked 4 February 2007). Maps I have consulted are blank at this location. My memory is that Mumpolokoso is Mporokoso and this is backed up by references found on the Times of Zambia website and websites of aid agencies. I wonder if there is a river or village at 9°54' S 29° 56' E called Mumpolokoso or associated with the chief (such as an alternative residence, sacred site, historical location -- before colonial times it was common for a newly enthroned chief to move his village to a new location. Can anyone else shed any light on why these coodinates might be associated with 'Mumpolokoso'?Rexparry sydney 04:02, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
