The Ovambanderu people culture does not differ much to that one of the Ovaherero people. They speak that one may say is the same language and also share the same sacred believes. Whith this I mean, they use the holly fire as source to communication with their ancestors, they have "ejanda" and "oruzo". The two "oruzo" and "ejand" are highly connected to the old living style, dating from very long back and up to now no one can tell where it had originated from. "Ejand" detemins many things, like who you are, who you should merry, here it says that two persons with exactly the same "ejanda" wont get merried no matter he or she is not related to you, here "ejanda" will confirm your relationship regarding merriages and other sacred things.

"Ejanda" is also associated with animals the way they act naturally.

"Oruzo" determins what must keep, eat and use and it is more associated with domesticated animals their colours and others. As a Mbanderu myself I grew up and had been very close with this tradition since.
