SiteRecordings

During the survey, several Middle Stone Age tools and artefacts were found scattered over the area in varying densities. Artefact density is no higher than 3 artefacts per m². No formal tools were observed and artefacts consist mostly of flakes with faceted platforms, several blades, a point and a possible scraper. The raw material for these artefacts are from Metaquartzite (sometimes glassy quartzite with a grey-green colour) and calcsilicates and quartzite schist. thousands of square kilometres of Bushmanland are covered by a low density lithic scatter. These artefacts are scattered too sparsely to be of any significance apart from noting their presence, which has been done so in this report. These low-density scatters are of low significance.
