Sondela and its Cultural History

While we were at Tambouki were went on a walk to see the evidence of possible stone age inhabitants on Sondela.
We learnt about the San Khoi and the Khoi-San and the difference between them. the San were hunter gatherers and the Khoi cattle herders. the reason they were later called the khoi-San was because the San started working for the khoi people as cattle herders.
we learnt that they used a bigger stone (that they held in their hands) to chip off shards from a another stone, in order to make other tools and even spear and arrow heads.
on the rocks there are hollows and slits that were obviously used to sharpen various tools. We also found pot shards that also point towards human inhabitants. we also learnt that they probably used the koppie because it is a convenient lookout. Probably the most important thing we learnt was that there are undiscovered places like these all over South Africa and that we must not move anything from these places because that which we remove looses its value because it can no longer be identified with a specific area and thus with a specific culture.
