[Source - Carolyn Hamilton for FHYA, 2017: This typescript was part of an experimental attempt by Swaziland Oral History Project in the early 1990s in producing edited English texts based on original interviews. The experiments were regarded as unsuccessful and the edited typescripts rejected as research materials. The FHYA includes this material in the exemplar because the typed text is searchable and thus has the capacity to act as a form of 'index' to the handwritten transcripts and the original sound recordings. This is in line with the FHYA's commitment to the principle of maximum word-based searchability] Attributions and conjectures [Source - Chloe Rushovich for FHYA, 2021, using SWOHP materials: (Royal interview, 1968) Two speakers are audible in this interview, Phuhlaphi Nsibandze and James Matsebula. At certain points in the interview, King Sobhuza II intervenes, but unfortunately all his interventions are not always clear. Phuhlaphi Nsibandze was send on a specific mission by the king, and the interview begins with his account of the mission and his explanation of historical events. At a later stage in the interview James Matsebula starts to speak and contests the interpretation given by Phuhlaphi Nsibandze.
