Only one team will earn the right to enter Olmec's temple to retrieve it. It is now time for Olmec to tell us about the legend of Shaka Zulu. Pay attention, because your knowledge of the legend can bring you a step closer to the temple...
"Long ago there lived a great warrior chief of the Zulu nation. His name was Shaka Zulu. When he was little, he and his mother were banished from their tribe, and for many years they wandered in the African bush living off bugs and plants. Finally, they were taken in by another Zulu tribe called the Mthethwas. But Shaka never forgot how his old tribe had treated him and his mother. When he was 30, the chief of the Mthethwas put Shaka in charge of a large Zulu tribe of his own. He developed new war tactics, and created a Zulu army with regiments and commanders. He also put distinguishing markings on the warriors' shields so you could tell them apart. When Shaka became chief of all the Zulus, he conquered almost all of the other tribes in the southern plains of Africa, including the tribe that had been so cruel to him as a child. Legend has it, that many years later a trader stumbled upon Shaka's secret grave and stole his burial mask. Your quest is to retrieve that mask, and bring it here..."
