Then, in 1995, after the majority government elections, people returned to the area. Initially we lived in tents until we were given subsidies to build houses on 4000ha of land allocated to us on the far side of the Kai !Garib River. We could not use or visit the designated AFNP, though many of us had been born in the park and our relatives are buried there. The community receives some financial contribution from the Park, but we want to be involved in managing the Park. After eight years of negotiations we still have no formal agreement with SANP. This is very frustrating. We are interested in developing tourism and saw this as an opportunity for co-operation with the Park, but we have received no offer of a hand in friendship from management. So we have gone to the Parliamentary Portfolio committee to explain our concerns and our objectives. We now work through the Siyanda District to hold discussions with David Rooi, the Northern Cape Provincial Minister (MEC) for Land, and also officials at National level. We are calling on the MEC to de-proclaim Melkbosrand and return it to us with the objective of developing the Augrabies Falls National Park as a community controlled contract Park.

At a Glance Regions Icons Parks ... Events MOREON THE BAFOKENG The Flag The Emblem Bojanala Region Rustenberg The Sotho-Tswana speaking peoples adhere to totems, which are honoured emblems of the tribe. The totem is revered by the members of that tribe and is often chosen to commemorate an event of great importance in tribal history. The baFokeng are originally BaKwena people and they still honour the crocodile (Kwena) as their totem. THE BAFOKENG PEOPLE OF RUSTENBURG Origins When they arrived in the area as baKwena people, they found that the valleys amongst the hills captured heavy overnight dew. It would be a fertile land and the tribe would prosper. So they decided to settle there and, in honour of the occasion, to take the totem: baFokeng: 'the people of the dew'. This was then added to the name baKwena so that the genealogical totem was maintained. Years of War The baFokeng through the ages had a turbulent history. The tribal history is thought to begin in the early 1700s under King Sekete III. The baFokeng were oppressed by the baHurutse, who castrated the baFokeng's bulls as an insult to the baFokeng. This led to war which the baFokeng won.

THE OKAVANGO DELTA PEOPLES OF BOTWANA JOHN BOCK AND SARA E. JOHNSON Cultural Overview The People Understanding the historical distribution of people and their patterns of migration and association are key elements to interpreting the present. Members of all of these ethnic groups live outside of Botswana as well. Bugakwe, Dxeriku, and Hambukushu live in northern Namibia and southern Angola. There are also Hambukushu people in southwestern Zambia. Some Xanekwe and Wayeyi people also live in northern Namibia. Due to the Namibian war for independence and the Angolan civil war, communication and travel between Botswana, Namibia, and Angola has been difficult since the 1970s. As a result, the ethnic communities in these countries have grown apart. Although now travel along the Okavango River is easier between Botswana and Namibia, the ongoing civil war in Angola has left Angolan members of these ethnic groups relatively isolated. Today, people from all five ethnic groups live throughout the Okavango Delta. Historically the Bugakwe, Dxeriku, and Hambukushu lived in the Panhandle and eastern edge of the Delta. The Xanekwe lived in the Panhandle and along the Jao and Boro Rivers in the central and western Delta, and the Wayeyi lived along the Jao River in the northern Delta, on the northwestern side of the Delta, and on the southern edge of the Delta. The Setting South of the town of Seronga, the narrow Panhandle gives way to the wide Delta, which spreads out for over one hundred kilometers to the south, east, and west. This area is a patchwork of swampy areas and islands. The swamp is similar to that of the Panhandle. The islands are heavily forested with acacia, palm, and figs. Animal life here consists of mostly the same species as both the Panhandle and the desert savanna, with hippo, crocodile, sitatunga, and lechwe (another aquatic antelope) in the swamps and other types of antelope, elephants, zebra, baboons, giraffe and predators such as lions, leopards, cheetah, hyena, and African wild dogs on the islands.

‘HUNTING IS OUR HERITAGE’ THE STRUGGLE FOR HUNTING AND GATHERING RIGHTS AMONG THE SAN OF SOUTHERN AFRICA Robert K. Hitchcock Introduction A major concern of San and other indigenous peoples in southern Africa is whether or not they will be able to maintain their rights to hunting and gathering in the face of major changes in land and natural resource conservation legislation and development projects that tend to favor mining, agriculture, and commercial livestock production. Unfortunately for those people who depend on hunting and gathering for part of their livelihoods, there are few states in Africa that permit their citizens to engage in hunting for subsistence purposes. Currently the only African country which has national-level legislation allowing subsistence hunting rights is the Republic of Botswana (Hitchcock 1996). Two other countries in Africa in the past allow specific groups of people who traditionally were hunter-gatherers to hunt for subsistence: (1) Namibia, where one group, the Ju/’hoansi San are allowed to hunt in what was Eastern Bushmanland (now Eastern Otjozondjupa) (Hitchcock 1996), and (2) Tanzania, where the Hadza in the Lake Eyasi region were allowed to hunt without paying fees under the country’s Wildlife Conservation Act of 1974 (Newman 1970:59).

The Okavango Delta Peoples of Botswana The Bugakwe Dxeriku Hambukushu Wayeyi , and Xanekwe Peoples The Okavango Delta of the Republic of Botswana is a large wetland surrounded by the Kalahari desert . The Okavango is a unique ecosystem and has large populations of African mammals, birds, and other animals. Conservationists have taken a great interest in the preservation of the Delta. Of less interest have been the 100,000 people who call the Delta home. This site is dedicated to the dissemination of information concerning the Okavango Delta Peoples. Who are the Okavango Delta Peoples? The Okavango Delta peoples consist of five ethnic groups, each with its own ethnic identity and language. They are Hambukushu (also known as Mbukushu Bukushu Bukusu Mbukuschu Ghuva Haghuva Dxeriku Dceriku Diriku Gciriku Gceriku Giriku Niriku Wayeyi Bayei Bayeyi Yei Bugakwe Kxoe Khwe Kwengo Barakwena , G/ anda ) and Xanekwe Gxanekwe tanekwe , River Bushmen, Swamp Bushmen, G// ani ani ). The Hambukushu Dxeriku , and Wayeyi are all Bantus who have traditionally engaged in mixed economies of millet/sorghum agriculture; fishing, hunting, and the collection of wild plant foods; and pastoralism . The Bugakwe and Xanekwe are Bushmen who have traditionally practiced fishing, hunting, and the collection of wild plant foods;

English is the language of administration and is spoken throughout the country. The other official languages are: Afrikaans, Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Southern Sotho, Swazi, Tsongo, Tswana, Venda, Xhosa and Zulu. The Rainbow Nation South Africa is one of the most multicultural countries in the world. In urban areas many different ethnic groups will make up the population. In addition to the indigenous black peoples of South Africa colonialism and immigration have brought in white Europeans, Indians, Indo-Malays, Chinese and many more. As such it is difficult to generalise at all on South African etiquettes and culture due to the diversity.

800-year old Iron Age potsherds found near the crater lake (courtesy National Cultural History Museum) People At Tswaing Home Vision What Is Tswaing? The Crater Lake ... Crater Chat Stone Age people It is quite possible that the meteorite impact event was actually seen by humans, as the Magaliesberg and, in particular, the Wonderboompoort area south of Tswaing, had been periodically inhabited by Early Stone Age people since 500 000 years ago. However, none of the typically large and rather crude tools made at Wonderboom have yet been found at Tswaing. While there were many inhabited sites along the Magaliesberg, there probably was no need to visit Tswaing where animal and plant life only slowly re-established itself after the impact. Regular visits by people only began during Middle Stone Age times, about 150 000 to 30 000 years ago. Small nomadic groups came to Tswaing from time to time to hunt, gather edible and medicinal plants and to collect salt. They made tools and weapons of bone, stone and wood, although smaller and in greater variety then their Early Stone Age predecessors. Many scrapers, point and other stone tools that were thrown away or lost have been found at Tswaing. These objects were probably brought from elsewhere, because the Tswaing rocks are not suitable for the making of stone artefacts. At Tswaing a few stone artefacts from the Late Stone Age have been found, brought there by the ancestors of the San (Bushman) people, who lived from 30 000 to 2 000 years ago.

Home History 322 lecture list Wallace G. Mills Hist. 322 1 Peoples of S. Africa Peoples of South Africa San (Bushmen) - they were hunters and food-gatherers. -they employed stone age technology, but they had very extensive and sophisticated knowledge of plants and animals in their environment. - they were the cave painters in South Africa; they used similar themes and materials as were used by cave painters in the Sahara dating back about 30,000 years. Khoikhoi (Hottentots) - the Khoikhoi were pastoralists (cattle-keepers); - they had some metals (copper and alloys); they may have acquired these in trade (some evidence of dispersion of metals from central Africa), but there are also evidences of smelting in number of areas of the north-western Cape and Namibia. - pastoralism gave more control over food supply and somewhat more intensive exploitation allowed denser population and larger political/judicial systems; however, these systems often did not function continuously throughout the year. Annual migrations would bring people together for part of the year; then they would disperse to other grazing grounds for the remainder of the year. Thus, the degree of control and the level of cohesion were limited. - the Khoikhoi were vulnerable to loss of cattle because their way of life and livelihood depended on this; yet cattle were practically the only commodity which they could trade for European goods. As dependencies on these goods grew, loss of cattle left few economic choices except to become labourers for the white settlers.

Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe Regional Representatives: Poem MOONEY Khoisan, South Africa Southern Africa Mathambo NGAKAEAJA Naro San, Botswana Deputy, Southern Africa Priscilla de Wet FOX Khoisan, South Africa Gender, Southern Africa Regional Review: Unlike some other parts of Africa, there is a clear distinction between the first peoples of Southern Africa and Africans who migrated into the region in relatively recent times. The cultural presence of the San hunter-gatherers has been attested to in rock art and archaeology for over 20 000 years. Human occupation of the region stretches back over 150 000 years. The aboriginal San, and their related herding neighbours, the Khoekhoe, are considered by geneticist to be the origin point of all human gene types, i.e. all humans are descended from the ancestors of the San. The San are also distinguished by their extraordinarily complex languages that include a range of click sounds. San peoples have been slowly colonised first by the arrival of Bantu-speaking Black agro-pastoralists from East and Central Africa, then much more aggressively by European settlers. The impact of European settlement in South Africa included an almost complete destruction of San civilisations. Today there are some 100 000 San living in the region. Only about 15 people have graduated from tertiary education, the majority live in situations of poverty and marginalisation. South Africa This will be the first time that an African government adopts policy that explicitly recognises the rights of indigenous peoples. The wording refers to 'vulnerable indigenous communities' to distinguish first peoples from the Black majority population.
