The contents are not necessarily the final views or position of the Ministry of Environment and Tourism. Comments and feedback will be welcomed. Abstract This study deals with the role of water availability and chemical water quality for the game species Springbok Antidorcas marsupialis, Blue wildebeest Connochaetes taurinus, Burchell’s zebra Equus burchelli and Gemsbok Oryx gazella, in order to gain knowledge of how the adapted wildlife utilises water. In detail, the study investigates the changes of the water availability and chemical quality of water at perennial and seasonal waterholes within a study area of the Etosha National Park, Northern Namibia, throughout the year 1995. It further examines how the animals react to these seasonal changes i.e. in their drinking frequency, their utilisation of perennial and seasonal waterholes, their utilisation of different chemical qualities of water, their ‘acceptance limits’ of high salinities of water, their daily and seasonal movements and their utilisation of grazing areas.

  • Chapter 6 Kunene, Oshana and Oshikoto Regions
    Chapter 6 Kunene, Oshana and Oshikoto Regions By Ute Dieckmann Farm Six – a Hai||om San settlement in Oshikoto Region 6.1 General background In the 19th century and early 20th century, the Hai||om San as an ethnic group lived in the region stretching from the area then known as Owamboland to present-day Etosha, Grootfontein, Tsumeb, Otavi, Outjo and Otjiwarongo (Dieckmann 2007b: 35-36) (see map next page). Today the Hai||om are concentrated in parts of Kunene, Oshikoto and Oshana Regions, constituting the majority San population of these regions, therefore these three regions are dealt with in a single chapter. Estimations of the number of Hai||om in Namibia vary. Budack’s estimate in 1980 was 11 000 (see Widlok 1999: 23), and the census of 1991 (the latest available data on Hai||om) found 7 506 Hai||om speakers (see Widlok 1999: 19). However, the Hai||om language is closely related to Nama/Damara (also of the Khoekhoegowab language family), and our study found that many Hai||om, in response to the census question of “main language spoken at home”, had stated that it was “Nama/Damara”.

  • Namibia's Red Line – South Africa's Imperial 'Barbarian Border'
    1 Namibia's Red Line – South Africa's imperial 'barbarian border' (paper presented by Giorgio Miescher, Basler Afrika Bibliographien/University of Basel at the ABORNE meeting in Johannesburg, 10-12 September 2009) Draft, not to quote without permission, not for (internet) circulation!!!! Abstract: My paper is based on a PhD thesis on the history of the so-called Red Line, the veterinary and settlement border separating northern and central Namibia. The thesis reconstructs the complex process of establishing this border in the period between the 1890s and the 1960s when it eventually materialised as a fence running from east to west. In postcolonial Namibia the fence, which is 1250 kilometres long, constitutes one of the central structural colonial legacies. The history of the Red Line raises several questions with regard to African borders in general, which I would like to address in my paper. First, the example of the Red Line directs our attention to internal African borders and challenges existing border typologies and hierarchies in historiography. In fact, for many decades the Red Line was of much greater relevance than any international border of colonial Namibia. This role was reflected e.g. in colonial jurisdiction which upgraded the status of the inner-Namibian border to a de iure international border. Second, the example of the Red Line requires a broadening of the dichotomy between boundary and frontier. Instead the concept of the imperial 'barbarian border' ('Barbarengrenze') proved to be more fruitful for an interpretation of the history of a border which cannot be framed in terms of the closing of a frontier and the establishment of a fixed boundary alone.
