The grave (centre) of prophetess Makhetha Mantsopa, a renowned healer, rainmaker and diviner, was born around 1795, in a place called Likotsi or Ramakhetheng near present day Maseru. Mansopa died on the 11th November 1906 and is buried in the cemetery alongside the St Augustine’s complex Priory Chapel at Modderpoort. Her memory is preserved and she is still revered by many today.
