Duration
4 hours
Overview
-
We will give you a glimpse of how the San adapted to the Kalahari Desert, by gathering an astounding array of edible foods, medicinal roots, and other veld products.
You will indulge in activities like walk- is a slow meander through the bushveld, for about an hour and a half, of not more than four kilometers. Accompany a small band of Bushman, and women, with a translator, as they go have their rich heritage of accumulated knowledge that makes the San/Bushman masters of this harsh environment, helping you to learn about the botany of your surroundings.
There is also Bushmen dance activity. These dances are not only a celebration of life but are also a means of passing on historic folktale from generation to generation. The dances have probably not changed in the last 20 000 years of San/Bushman culture. The harmonizing and nuances of this music is initially disturbing to the Western ear, but with careful listening, gains a fluidity and resonance, which is tranquil to the mind.
