Ubulelesi

Ukuphanga sisenzo sokuphanga nofana ubudlwangudlwangu bobulelesi ngabantu abahlasela ngemikhumbi nofana ngesikepe abahlasela omunye umkhumbi nofana indawo eseduze nelwandle, ngokujayelekileko ngomnqopho wokweba imithwalo nezinye izinto ezibizako. Labo abenza izenzo zokuphanga babizwa ngokuthi ma-pirates ngelimi lesiNgisi, begodu imikhumbi esetjenziselwa ubugebengu ibizwa ngokuthi mikhumbi yama-pirates . Izehlakalo zokuthoma ezitlolwe phasi zokukhwabanisa bezikhona ngekhulu le-14 BC, lokha abantu beLwandle, isiqhema sabahlaseli belwandle, nabahlasela imikhumbi ye- Aegean ne-Mediterranean. Iindlela ezincani ezidosela ukuthunyelwa kwemikhumbi eendleleni eziqagelekako sele zidale amathuba wobugebengu,  kanye nokuhlasela kwezokurhweba .

Iimbonelo zomlando zeendawo ezinjalo zifaka hlangana amanzi we- Gibraltar, i- Strait of Malacca, i-Madagascar, i -Gulf of Aden, kanye ne- English Channel, lapho izakhiwo zendawo zasiza ukuhlaselwa kwamapirate.   Ibizo elithi ubugebengu ngokuvamileko litjho ubugebengu belwandle, nanyana ibizo leli sele litjho izenzo ezenziwa ephasini,  emoyeni, emanethiwekhini wamakhomphyutha, kanye (ngeendaba zesayensi) emkhathini. Ubulelesi buvame ukungafaki ubulelesi obenziwe mthengisi emkhunjini wakhe (isib. ukweba), kanye nokuthengisa ngasese, okutjho ukugunyazwa ngurhulumende wombuso .
