Shabaka Marx, (-2868, -2809) was a butcher in Tlokwe.
Shabaka believed in Animism.
He lived mostly in extreme poverty. Simply eating was an issue, most of the days. He lived as an outcast. To tell the truth, in Tlokwe, he gained the trust or the friendship of no one. He had only a basic knowledge that summed up to a few oral stories from childhood. He was robust, stunning, and never got sick a single time. He was considered spiritless, and unable to make a decision.
Shabaka, 46 years old, butcher, became the new leader of the family.
At the age of 59, Shabaka invested time and efforts into a special artistic creation, but it wasn't a success, for he had no enough culture. People made fun of his attempt at creation, and Shabaka lost courage. A few weeks later, Shabaka drove away some wild beasts lurking around his house. On the first day of the month after, Shabaka fell in love with Orisa, a charming woman, 30 years old, a quarryman. Both married and lived together from now on.
A little while after, Orisa got pregnant and gave birth to an adorable baby. However, the baby died in the following year by an accidental fall. The whole family was shaken.
Shabaka died of exhaustion after a normal day of work.
