BOTSWANA & SOUTH AFRICA: SEPT. 1999

These photographs (taken on a Sony Mavica FD 81)
illustrate our Sept. 1999 Jacana Safari in Botswana.

We were pleasantly surprised and impressed with the abundance and clarity of the Southern San (Bushmen) rock art at Bushman's Kloof.	More walking at Bushman's Kloof; in addition to the rock art the area also has a fascinating array of fauna and flora, including many endemic bird species.
Our Bushman's Kloof guide, Andrè, was knowledgeable, entertaining and very caring of our well-being; in fact he was admirably suited for the job!	Another view of Andrè at work, explaining the three current theories surrounding the Bushman rock art, being the aesthetic, narrative and religious points of view.
The Cedarberg area in which Bushman's Kloof is located, is one of the most scenically beautiful areas in all of South Africa.	The Table Mountain Sandstone (TMS) of the Cedarberg is constantly being weathered and is slowly fragmenting over many eons. Here Kathleen is standing in front of the remaining portion of a rock which had practically split in half, about a year earlier. Soon, the white TMS rock face will start to oxidize and turn golden brown such as the rocks in the background.
