The Early Iron Age sites listed below are not necessarily all separate sites, but reflects the concentrations of village remains as represented by cattle enclosures, middens and cultural material such as pottery, metal working debris, ostrich eggshell beads and very distinctive grinding stones. All these sites were damaged or destroyed by cultivation. Most are, however, clearly demarcated by the location of cattle enclosures and middens, thereby maintaining high scientific value for village layout and pottery classification, as well as artefact collection.
