5.0 out of 5 stars Understanding southern african prehistory, December 14, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Landscape Transformations and the Archaeology of Impact: Social Disruption and State Formation in Southern Africa (Contributions To Global Historical Archaeology) (Hardcover)
This text provides an interesting context for reading the history and literature of southern Africa. Geography is useful in our grasp of migration in this part of the continent, which has rich oral traditions heretofore ignored by colonizers. The settlement of southern Africa by Bantu speaking peoples was ignored. Drought and other landscape transformations were the cause of later disruptions, like the mfecane. The text is highly readable and provides the student of southern Africa new information that predates colonization.
