Chaimite

Eastern Africa

Chaimite is a village in Gaza Province that is sacred to the Nguni people of the Gaza Empire. In January 1896 the Portuguese took Gungunhana, the last emperor of Gaza, prisoner in this area. Wikipedia gives coordinates for Chaimite that fall at about 24.66 degrees south and 33.32 degrees east. The SRTM 90 metre elevation model reads about 30 metres above sea level at that point. Like the rest of Mozambique, Chaimite keeps Central Africa Time, which is two hours ahead of UTC all year.
