Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned with the cultural politics and economics of the ownership, exchange and consumption of cattle in Peddie District in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Specifically, the question for which I sought an explanation is why- given a long history of government attempts to limit and channel cattle ownership by rural Xhosa people, as well as what appeared to be entrenched processes of de-agrarianisation, economic decline and considerble circular migration between town and country - did many of the people living in the communal areas of the Eastern Cape (i.e. the former bantustans of Ciskei and Transkei) express a keen interest to own cattle? Drawing on nine years of research engagement in Peddie District, and thirteen months of fieldwork in two villages, this dissertation explores how cattle were practically and discursively enmeshed in people’s everyday livelihoods, accumulation strategies and domestic - including gender and generational - struggles of rural homesteads in Peddie District. It was clear that cattle enjoyed considerable appeal as some of the ‘big notes’ in a rural economy that was dominated by social welfare transfers and casualised employment. I found that one way to gain a fuller understanding of people's investments in cattle was to analyse their variable social and structural positions within the village milieu, their economic trajectories and their broader cultural projects over time. I attempt to do this by presenting a number of biographical sketches of people pursuing two broad economic, cultural and ritual projects, i.e. that o fukwakh'umzi [to build the homestead] andmasincedisane [let us help each other], I employ case-studies to illustrate the range of differentiated interpretations, strategies and manipulations of specifically local bovine resources that variously situated people, as members of different households, employed in pursuit of these projects. For rural people in Peddie District, especially men and some widows, holding cattle meant trying to maximise their use of available physical (i.e. ‘free’ grazing and water resources on the commons), economic (the use of state-subsidised dipping and inoculation programmes and of household labour) and cultural resources (patriarchal values, bridewealth, norms of accumulation and sharing, and ritual practices) to advance their particular social projects, within the limited range of options open to them. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS After more than five years o f work, there are many people to thank for their support and encouragement in bringing this dissertation to completion. My greatest debt o f gratitude is to Katie, Francesca and Juliette who have patiently maintained a ‘friendly and cordial attitude to me’ and have constantly yet gently reminded me that I have a life on the other side o f this. I thank Chris de Wet, Kathy Homewood and Rob Gordon for supporting my application for a Commonwealth Scholarship. Chris has consistently supported my endeavours over the past decade and gave several chapters o f the thesis a close and critical read, for which I am most grateful. Ben Cousins, Henry Bernstein, Sandra Wallman, Dan Taylor and Barry Sharpe provided valuable insights and encouragement early on. Kathy Homewood has been very supportive throughout. Dan Brockington made a valuable editing intervention right in the nick o f time. I thank the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission and especially Teresa Anderson for her assistance. And at UCL, Fran Deans, Andrew Williams, Haidy Geismar, Sandy Gray and Steve Fraser deserve a special word o f thanks. Thank you to Susan Abraham o f the Graphic Services Unit at Rhodes University who produced the maps. I am grateful to colleagues at the Agricultural Research Council, particularly Tony Palmer, M.D. Hintsa, Louisa Verwey and Derick Swart, Amie Aucamp and Colin Johnson. Nokuzola Mgxashe and Mathemba Mapuma have played a bigger role in this project than they realise. I thank them for their consistent and critical interest in my work. I am particularly grateful to have colleagues and friends like Thembela Kepe, Lungisile Ntsebeza, Christo Fabricius and Cecil Manona. I thank Leslie Bank, Arona Dison, Tony Fluxman, Fred Hendricks, Dana Labe, Siza Manjezi, Pat McAllister, Lester Mitchell, Peter Mtuze, Welile Mzozoyana, Zolile Ntshona, Qurban Rouhani, Charlie Shackleton, Sheona Shackleton, Nonceba Shoba, Lawrence Sisitka, Lynette Steenveld, Larry Strelitz, Herman Timmermans, Jackson Vena, Susi Vetter and Luvuyo Wotshela for their support and occasional harassment. In Peddie, Sonwabo Mase, Patrick Gusha, Fezile Zibi, Nonzukiso Yekani and Sakhumzi Skina were especially helpful. To the Mkhaya and Mgaba families who opened their homes and lives to me, I am most grateful. To the residents o f Hamburg and Loverstwist I say a heart-felt thank you, ndiyanibulela nonke! Lastly, I am indebted to Phil Burnham for his Buddha-like patience, his intellectual rigour and his understated yet unfailing support to me in this endeavour. For Katie. 3 CONTENTS Chapter One Introduction................................................................................... 8 Chapter Two Understanding cattle-holding in the former bantustan areas of the Eastern Cape Province.....................................................36 Chapter Three Aspects of cattle production in the Ciskeian Reserves/ Bantustan and the Eastern Cape Province (1930-2001)............ 61 Chapter Four Constructing ‘rural’ livelihoods in Peddie District.....................98 Chapter Five The distribution of cattle holdings and the costs of cattle production in Peddie District..........................................136 Chapter Six Farming cattle, cultivating relationships.

    BIOMONOTORING OF THE KIESKAMMA RIVER SYSTEM (R 10 CATCHMENT) Figure 1; Sandile Dam March 2008 PREPARED BY: Mlondolozi N. Mbikwana Assisted by: Tembela Bushula Collection of data: M.N. Mbikwana, K. Mkosana, E. Weni, T Bushula and N. Finca PO BOX 7019 EAST LONDON 5201 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The main objective of the South African National River Health Programme (NRHP) makes use of the instream and riparian biological communities like the fish, macro invertebrates and vegetation to assess the ecological health or condition of rivers. These biological communities are always found in rivers and they are often affected by any disturbance that occurs in the river ecosystem. This report provides the results of the biomonitoring survey that was undertaken in November 2007. Field indices used for data collection included the South African Scoring System version 5.0 (SASS5) for Macro invertebrates and the Fish Assemblage Integrity Index for fish (FAII). Ten biomonitoring sites were selected in the Keiskamma River system; this includes three sites in the Tyume River (a tributary to Keiskamma River) and they are: Site Description Coordinates Site Code 1 Tyume Head waters (Hogsback) S32o 36’ 39.8”, E26o R1Tyum-Hogsb 56’ 52.2” 1a ** Tyume Head waters (Sompondo S32o 37’ 34.2”, E26o R1Tyum-Sompo ** Village) 57’ 19.9” 2 Tyume Fort Hare S32o 46’ 44.6”, E26o R1Tyum-Forth 51’ 21.5” 3 Tyume before confluence with S32o 54’ 06.2”, E26o R1Tyum-Becon Keiskamma river 55’ 40.0” 4 Keiskamma above confluence with S32o 54’ 41.9”, E26o R1Keis-abcon Tyume 56’ 17.6” 5 Keiskamma

  • Strategic Military Colonisation: the Cape Eastern Frontier 1806 – 1872
    46 STRATEGIC MILITARY COLONISATION: THE CAPE EASTERN FRONTIER 1806–1872 Linda Robson* and Mark Oranje† Department of Town and Regional Planning, University of Pretoria Abstract The Cape Eastern Frontier of South Africa offers a fascinating insight into British military strategy as well as colonial development. The Eastern Frontier was for over 100 years a very turbulent frontier. It was the area where the four main population groups (the Dutch, the British, the Xhosa and the Khoikhoi) met, and in many respects, key decisions taken on this frontier were seminal in the shaping of South Africa. This article seeks to analyse this frontier in a spatial manner, to analyse how British settlement patterns on the ground were influenced by strategy and policy. The time frame of the study reflects the truly imperial colonial era, from the second British occupation of the Cape colony in 1806 until representative self- governance of the Cape colony in 1872. Introduction British colonial expansion into the Eastern Cape of Southern Africa offers a unique insight into the British method of colonisation, land acquisition and consolidation. This article seeks to analyse the British imperial approach to settlement on a turbulent frontier. The spatial development pattern is discussed in order to understand the defensive approach of the British during the period 1806 to 1872 better. Scientia Militaria, South African South Africa began as a refuelling Journal of Military Studies, station for the Dutch East India Company on Vol 40, Nr 2, 2012, pp. 46-71. the lucrative Indian trade route.

  • Hamburg, Eastern Cape, South Africa
    Local Economic Development Plan Hamburg VERSION 1 Local Economic Development Plan for Hamburg August 2011 Caveat The current document is a work in progress. Many people contributed to its production by way of field trips, and through providing diverse information or other input. Most importantly, the local communities and stakeholders gave extensive input through open community meetings as well as more specific planning sessions. The document provides a solid foundation on which to base further planning and implementation, as it captures the needs and aspirations of the local community. The document is not perfect and can be expected to evolve as circumstances change and more parties become involved, and make further changes to it. That is why it is labelled “Version 1”. 3 Local Economic Development Plan for Hamburg August 2011 Vision for Hamburg The Vision for Hamburg was developed during the course of a public meeting, 190 individual interviews and a series of meetings and engagements with different stakeholder groups in Hamburg. The vision presents the collective view of the inhabitants of the community, as to where they would like to see their village and themselves one day. In this sense, the Vision functions as a guiding light on the road into the future, with the Local Economic Development Plan serving as the road map. The draft vision was presented for feedback to the community in a public meeting and was approved by the community as: “We envision Hamburg to be more developed with housing, good road infrastructure, shopping and bank facilities, art projects, education for all and importantly more job opportunities.

  • Heritage Scan of the Sandile Water Treatment Works Reservoir Construction Site, Keiskammahoek, Eastern Cape Province
    HERITAGE SCAN OF THE SANDILE WATER TREATMENT WORKS RESERVOIR CONSTRUCTION SITE, KEISKAMMAHOEK, EASTERN CAPE PROVINCE 1. Background and Terms of Reference AGES Eastern Cape is conducting site monitoring for the construction of the Sandile Water Treatment Works Reservoir at British Ridge near Keiskammahoek approximately 30km west of King Williamstown in the Eastern Cape Province. Amatola Water is upgrading the capacity of the Sandile WTW and associated bulk water supply infrastructure, in preparation of supplying the Ndlambe Bulk Water Supply Scheme. Potentially sensitive heritage resources such as a cluster of stone wall structures were recently encountered on the reservoir construction site on a small ridge and the Heritage Unit of Exigo Sustainability was requested to conduct a heritage scan of the site, in order to assess the site and rate potential damage to the heritage resources. The conservation of heritage resources is provided for in the National Environmental Management Act, (Act 107 of 1998) and endorsed by section 38 of the National Heritage Resources Act (NHRA - Act 25 of 1999). The Heritage Scan of the construction site attempted established the location and extent of heritage resources such as archaeological and historical sites and features, graves and places of religious and cultural significance and these resources were then rated according to heritage significance. Ultimately, the Heritage Scan provides recommendations and outlines pertaining to relevant heritage mitigation and management actions in order to limit and
