The area is characterised by mountainous areas (featuring the Olifants River) as well as open grassland. The area has a rich cultural heritage with Ndebele people living in the area since AD1650 and white farmers settling in the late 19th Century. Iron Age settlements Five Late Iron Age stone-walled settlements were recorded during the survey. These are preliminarily associated with Ndzundza-Ndebele occupation (AD 1650 – AD 1830). Some of these sites are extensive and have substantial archaeological deposits. -
