The eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality (Zulu: UMasipala weDolobhakazi laseThekwini) is a metropolitan municipality, created in 2000, that includes the city of Durban and surrounding towns. eThekwini is one of the 11 districts of the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa. As of 2011, the majority of its 3,442,361 inhabitants spoke isiZulu.

## Etymology

[edit]

In an 1859 Zulu grammar book, Bishop Colenso asserted that the root word iTeku means "bay of the sea", from the name Mtheku, used by the Thabethe tribes clan, who were the leaders of the Nguni people. Furthermore the original local inhabitants noted that the locative form, eThekwini, was used as a proper name for Durban.[5]

An 1895 English-Zulu dictionary translates the base word iteku as "bay", "creek", "gulf" or "sinus",[6] while a 1905 Zulu-English dictionary notes that eTekwini is used for Durban.[7]

## Geography

[edit]

eThekwini is surrounded by:

* iLembe (DC29) to the north
* the Indian Ocean to the east
* Ugu (DC21) to the south
* Umgungundlovu (DC22) to the west

## Politics
