South Africa, Khoikhoi Cattle Herders
Op wat wyze de Hottentotten de schape en het rundvee beware (On what ways the Hottentots keep the sheep and the cattle). 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.
