Question 1.
1.1 a) the San- The San were hunter-gatherers who lived in smaller, nomadic family groups.
locate crops that are edible and to follow wildlife movement patterns, they relocated
seasonally.
b) the Bantu speaking- During the Iron Age, these people raised livestock and farmed
crops like millet and sorghum and fashioned iron implements. They usually resided in
homesteads that were semi-permanent.
c) the Khoikhoi- Compared to the San, the Khoikhoi were pastoral herders who lived in
bigger, more intricate societies. They kept livestock as a sign of their prosperity, such as
goats, sheep, and cattle To.
1.2 People who lived in the area that now comprises Botswana, Zambia, and Angola began
to acquire sheep in the latter half of the first millennium BC. They then progressively went
southward into central Namibia, into the Highveld, and into the Cape. The Bantu-speaking
agriculturalists were separated from the rest of the population. The pastoralists
constructed readily disassembled houses and moved around a lot. As a result, they never
stayed in one location for a very long time. Their communities lacked both order and a
strong sense of ownership over a specific plot of land. In places with more permanence,
like the Zulu royal village at uMgungundlovu, the people did feel a bond with the land and
regarded it as their own. In addition to establishing rights over the land, agriculture also
offered a certain permanence.
1.3 Dutch settlers first came in to contact with the Xhosa. Battles that developed into
frontier wars were caused by disputes over cattle and suitable grazing areas. The first war
occurred in 1780s, following conflict, the Great-fish river and the Sundays River were
chosen as the Xhosa and settler boundaries.
The line was shifted west to Sundays River following a second war around eight years later.
The Sundays River border was established by the third war. The Dutch seized Xhosa land as
a result of each of these conflicts. Dutch settlers first came into contact with the Xhosa.
Battles that developed into frontier wars were caused by disputes over cattle and suitable
grazing areas. Land annexation persisted until the British took control of the Cape in 1795.
Following their arrival, measures were launched to implement a more organised land
