Manasse Tyiseseta (April 25, 1850, Otjimbingwe - April 17, 1898, Omaruru) was the leader of a group of Herero with their headquarters in Omaruru.

Life

Manasse Tyiseseta studied at the Augustineum Secondary School in Otjimbingwe. In 1867, he journeyed with Christian Wilhelm Zeraua to Omaruru (then known as Okonjose). Manasse taught at the local school from 1871 to 1882.

He married Zeraua's daughter Albertina Tjiseseta Zeraua (1851-1951). They had 3 children: Michael Tyiseseta (1872–1924), Hugo Tyiseseta (1877-1951), and Charlotte Tyiseseta Zeraua (1881-1951).[1]

Victor Franke claimed that during the rinderpest epidemic of 1897, Tyiseseta would not allow his cattle to be vaccinated.

Manasse died on April 17, 1898 of typhoid. His grave is located next to that of Christian Zeraua in the cemetery of Omaruru.

Leadership

Tyiseseta was the half brother of chief Tjaherani (tenure: 1860-1884). After the deaths of Tjaherani and Christian Wilhelm Zeraua in 1884, Tyiseseta became the Herero leader of Omaruru. He signed a treaty of protectionon November 3, 1885 with Heinrich Ernst Göring and thereby with the German Empire.[2] The missionaries Carl Gotthilf Büttner and Gottlieb Viehe were also present. Manasse kept his tribe independent of the Germans and the chieftain Samuel Maharero for many years. trading with Suid-Afrika for weapons, ammo, and other goods. He had his own armed forces.[3]

Samuel Maharero was named the chief Herero leader under German auspices in Augustus 1891, but other chiefs objected. That November 26, Theodor Leutwein negotiated a meeting between Samuel Maharero and Zacharias Zeraua, both agreeing to meet with Tyiseseta. From then on, Tyiseseta's political dominance was backed up by German military might.
