Life & Legacy
Elizabeth Pulane Moremi (1912–1994) was regent and mohumagadi (queen) of baTawana from 1946 to 1964 while her son, Letsholathêbê II a Morêmi, was too young to rule. She married Moremi III, the ruler of baTawana, in 1937. When he was killed in a 1946 car crash, she was made regent. In this role, Moremi attempted to make several progressive reforms but was hindered by conservative opposition. She stepped down in 1964 and worked at a school until her death, thirty years later.
