SiteComments: 

The location of an extensive stone walled settlement on the southern portion of Malokong Hill. The physically surveyed area covers a radius of more than 550 m over the hill, where stone walling, middens and material culture remains were recorded. The extent of the site could potentially extend beyond this area. Stone walling occurs from the base of Malokong Hill, and is terraced up against the slope. A large concentration of stone walling occurs on top of the hill, accessible through a natural depression in the hill. The location offers a clear view of the surrounding area to both the east and west of the settlement. The site is situated within the Royal Granite Supplies-Red (Pty) Ltd granite mine, and has been heavily impact upon. It currently lies approximately 270 m east, at the base of the hilloutside of the proposed Topsoil Dump for Pit 1.
