A tribe in Africa

So, let's try to understand without a deep and scientific exposure, which is like those of the African Bush. What kind of freaks are these people - San?

Repeatedly in Africa before, we have often paid attention in Botswana, Namibia, and even in South Africa, to short and simple people who are distinctly different from the usual Negroid race.

Their skin color is much brighter and the colors are different. And the behavior is radically different, they are calm, subtle, inconspicuous. Now these people live compactly in Namibia, Botswana, South Africa and Angola.

There are other related citizenship - Hottentots. Be it, and other names are not local, these names for citizenship are given by foreign colonists - Dutch and English. Bushman - everything is simple here: people living in pastures, bushes, forests, etc.

Hottentot - has Dutch pronunciation and is translated as "zaika". This is a rather offensive nickname for Africans because of their distinctive language, which refers to the so-called "Khoisan" language group.

In the Bushmen speech, let's briefly mention these two very similar people, many of the clicking consonants heard that the colonialists took the stutter.

These people, who were subdivided then are the most widespread in Africa, and complete them all, from north to south. Later, the more aggressive Negroid tribe suppressed the soft Bushmen, and the European colonialists finally annihilated these people with repression and brought new diseases, especially black pox, which most of the Bushmen vanished.

Now these scientists are chosen even in the fifth separate race, which shares the common traits of the Negroid and Mongoloid races. And recent genetic studies show that these people have what is called the ** Y-chromosome **, which is the oldest for modern people. So when you say "Adam", you can now imagine his face.

By the way, this name, or rather the name of self - "Sun" Bushmen took not long ago, in the 90s of last century. ** The name is derived from Hottentot **, which translates as "outsider", "stranger". Though I like to think that this means "sun person".

Botswana, by the way, is the only country where the Bushmen have not been systematically persecuted and destroyed. Bushmen previously led a nomadic way of life and engaged in hunting and gathering. Now they mainly work in agriculture and in the tourism business: they work as Bushmen, Pathfinders and help in cottages and camps.

The Bush people still live in the community, they have no leaders, but there are so-called "shamans" who can communicate with spirits and heal tribes. It can be men and women. In our case, for example, it is the oldest woman in the tribe. It's in photos and videos.

And now I suggest you watch a video showing the amazing language of the Bushmen and the second, showing how the Bushmen are scavenging, and one of them, "taming it." Immediately make a reservation that the scorpion was unharmed, and released to a new mink specifically excavated for it.
