The Battle of Ulundi (also called the battle of Ondini) fought on the 4th July 1879 was the final battle of the Anglo-Zulu War.

The British victory brought to an end the independent kingdom of the Zulus established by Shaka 50 years before hand.

In a bloody, one-sided encounter, over 1,500 Zulu warriors died that morning defending the old Zulu order.
