Right.

 

Swazis call it bulongo benkhomo ('dung of cattle') and do the same things
with it.

Dear Crispin,

dung + clay mixture is used for plastering internal and external walls of a
house. Even the mud floors of the huts are plastered with this mixture.
Farmers store their grain in huge bamboo baskets of 5000 litre capacity of
which both the internal and external surfaces are plastered with this
mixture. After the cooking is over, the clay stoves are coated with this
plaster every day. Cattle dung is not considered to be a dirty substance in
our culture. 

Yours

A.D.Karve
