BOOK DESCRIPTION The aim of this book is firstly to establish chronology of Later Stone Age settlement in Waterber plateau and secondly to investigate the particular influence of the Waterberg ecosystem on Later Stone Age settlement patterns and on the lifestyle of the inhabitants and their utilisation of resources of this area. Finally, the most complex study presented here is the study of the influence of the immigrant Iron Age farmers on the indigenous Later Stone Age hunter-gatherers. Castrum Portae Jovis Mediolani.

Africa has the longest record of human habitation in the world. The first hominins emerged 6-7 million years ago, and among the earliest anatomically modern human skulls found so far were discovered at Omo Kibish, Jebel Irhoud, and Florisbad.

The later Middle Stone Age of southern Africa witnesses a number of important changes in lithic technology including the early appearance of bifacial point and microlithic systems. Though radiometric ages for these changes remain contested, they can in places be reconciled with elements of climatic variation.

Southern Africa, southernmost region of the African continent, comprising the countries of Angola, Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Its elevation rises to the Great Escarpment, which flanks the plateau in an almost unbroken line from the Zambezi River to Angola. Late Stone Age peoples used bows and arrows and a variety of snares and traps for hunting, as well as grindstones and digging sticks for gathering plant food; with hooks, barbed spears, and wicker baskets they also were able to catch fish and thus exploit rivers, lakeshores, and seacoasts more effectively.
