South Africa, Khoikhoi Weapons Training
1. Een looper der Hottentotten 2. Hoe zy met haar Hasfagajen werpen 3. Hoe zy gewoon zyn te vegten. (1. A Walker of the Hottentots 2. How they throw with their Hasfagajen 3. How they'll just sweat.) The Khoikhoi are the traditionally nomadic pastoralist non-Bantu indigenous population of southwestern Africa. Peter Kolbe (1675-1726) was a Dutch astronomer and naturalist. He is best remembered for his publication Naauwkeurige beschryving van de Kaap de Goede Hoop, describing the geography, climate, flora and fauna, followed by an accurate study of the Hottentots (Khoikhoi), covering their language, religion, lifestyle and customs.
