In the extensive rock shelter of Ntlo-Kholo, in Basutoland, are remains of dwellings which have been in continued use for over two centuries. Instead of demolishing the old structure and replacing it by a new, the practice has been followed of adding the new huts to those already existing. In this way a complete evolutionary sequence has been preserved, affording a rare picture of an early eighteenth-century Bantu settlement and the subsequent changes which it has undergone. Somewhat similar structures exist elsewhere but generally these are of later date and were built as places of refuge during the Nguni devastations. |
