spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/16976 The San of the Cape thirstland and L. Anthing's "Special Mission" Findlay, Deborah Anne Webb, Colin San (African people) - History Bibliography: p. 67-72. The Cape Thirstland (comprising modern Namaqualand, Bushmanland, the Karoo, Gordonia and Griqualand West) became, from the beginning of the influx of herding and cultivating peoples into South Africa, an area of retreat - not only for San hunters and gatherers but later for disgruntled Khoi/Coloureds and Bantu-speakers. As population pressure grew, so the search for unoccupied land became more urgent, and even the most arid part of the country became coveted. What the first chapter of this essay attempts to show is how the San were caught up in the general competition for land, which seems to have shaped so much of South Africa's history, and how they dealt with the threat to their independence. 2016-02-12T07:13:31Z 2016-02-12T07:13:31Z 1977 Bachelor Thesis Honours BA (Hons) http://hdl.handle.net/11427/16976 eng application/pdf Department of Historical Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
