Manage episode 430581363 series 3338416
The little-known Battle of Inyezane was fought on the 22nd January 1879 during the Anglo-Zulu War.
The first major encounter of the conflict, it resulted in a British victory.
However, it was totally overshadowed (and consequently forgotten) in light of the British defeat at Isandlwana that same morning and the subsequent defence of Rorke's Drift.
