Kome Caves
Ha Kome caves are a group of caves built out of mud in a village called Pulane Ha Kome. These beautiful homes were found by Chief Teleka Kome who was coming from Matatiele, Eastern Cape in 1824. As he was running away from the tribal war, chief Kome came along with his family and animals. The caves were used as a hiding place from the cannibals. The decedents of the former founder are the current inhabitants of the caves.
