  • Maqoma, född 1798, död 1873, var en hövding för folket Xhosa i sydöstra Sydafrika, mest känd för sin roll under xhosakrigen. Maqoma har kallats för gerillakrigföringens fader. Maqoma var son till Ngqika, Rharhabe stammens kung inom Xhosafolket. Maqoma var obeveklig motståndare till att fadern avstått landet mellan Great Fish River och till brittiska kapkolonin efter de första xhosakrigen och gjorde hängivna försök att återta fäderneslandet. 1850 bröt det åttonde kriget ut där Maqoma använde sin skicklighet som general och gerillaledare och lyckades frustrera de främsta brittiska befälhavarna.
