Region in South Africa (5)

I believe the answer is:

natal

(Other definitions for natal that I've seen before include "South African region" , "KwaZulu-____ , South African province" , "Former African place" , "Province of South Africa" , "Relating to birth - former South African province" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
