Forgotten World reviewed in Mail & Guardian 27 Feb 2015

“The authors, a historian and two archaeologists, deftly pull together the current knowledge of these sites in a well-illustrated book. They have different areas of expertise, and work with different kinds of evidence. Thus the reader’s appreciation of the sites emerges from a varied and intricate tapestry of oral, missionary and written sources; a deep understanding of African social systems, agricultural and cattle management strategies; and a careful elucidation of material remains.”

“All who have a desire to understand the history of South Africa will enjoy this book. The photographs capture the exquisite nature of this cultural landscape, the narrative unlocks the import of these sites, and the book, as a whole, provides the inspiration to celebrate, protect and preserve these important places.
