The funeral mass for South African anti-apartheid campaigner Archbishop Desmond Tutu has taken place at the Anglican cathedral in Cape Town.
Tutu, a Nobel Peace Prize winner who helped end the racist regime in South Africa, died last Sunday aged 90.
In his eulogy, President Cyril Ramaphosa described Tutu as "the spiritual father of our new nation".
Tutu had insisted there should be no "lavish spending" on the funeral. He wanted "the cheapest available coffin".
