  • A Risk Based Approach to Heritage Management in South Africa
    The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XLII-2/W15, 2019 27th CIPA International Symposium “Documenting the past for a better future”, 1–5 September 2019, Ávila, Spain A RISK BASED APPROACH TO HERITAGE MANAGEMENT IN SOUTH AFRICA. C.Jackson a , L.Mofutsanyanaa,, N.Mlungwana a aSouth African Heritage Resources Agency, 111 Harrington Street Cape Town 8000, South Africa - [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Commission II, WG II/8 KEY WORDS: Digital Inventories, Heritage Management, South Africa, SAHRIS, Risk Analysis ABSTRACT: The management of heritage resources within the South African context is governed by the National Heritage Resources Act, act 25 of 1999 (NHRA). This legislation calls for an integrated system of heritage management that allows for the good governance of heritage across the three tiers of government. The South African Heritage Resources Agency (SAHRA), as the national body responsible for heritage management, is mandated to compile and maintain an inventory of the national estate. The South African Heritage Resources Information System (SAHRIS) was designed to facilitate this mandate as well as provide a management platform through which the three-tiers of governance can be integrated. This vision of integrated management is however predicated on the implementation of the three-tier system of heritage management, a system which to date has not been fully implemented, with financial and human resource constraints being present at all levels. In the absence of the full implementation of this system and the limited resources available to heritage authorities, we argue that a risk based approach to heritage management will allow under resourced heritage authorities in South Africa to prioritise management actions and ensure mitigations are in place for at risk heritage resources.

    ANNEXURE D ANNEXURE D ARCHAEOLOGIGAL CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT Guidelines for Property Owners and Managers Groot Constantia and Vergelegen Estates Revised May 2018 SAFEGUARDING ARCHAEOLOGY Archaeology is the study of human cultures by analysing the material remains (sites and artefacts) that people left behind, from the distant to recent past. Archaeological sites are non-renewable, very susceptible to disturbance and are finite in number. They are protected by law. Archaeological remains can be exposed during activities such as digging holes and trenching, or clearing ground, or when doing building maintenance and construction – or merely by chance discovery. Unlike the natural environment, a deposit that has been bulldozed away by mistake cannot be restored. The purpose of this document is to promote preservation of archaeological information while minimising disruption to projects or routine activities. It provides procedures to follow in the case of planned interventions and developments, or in the case of a chance archaeological find, to ensure that artefacts and sites are documented and protected. Archaeological sites are protected by the National Heritage Resources Act (Act 25 of 1999) (NHRA). According to the NHRA, all material remains resulting from human activity that have been abandoned for more than 100 years ago are the property of the State and may not be removed from their place of origin without a permit from the provincial heritage resources authority (Heritage Western Cape (HWC)) or from the South African Heritage Resources Agency (SAHRA). See HWC Regulations. In addition, the National Environmental Management Act (Act 107 of 1998) makes provision for assessment of impacts that activities such as large developments will have on archaeological heritage.

  • The Ecology of Large Herbivores Native to the Coastal Lowlands of the Fynbos Biome in the Western Cape, South Africa
    The ecology of large herbivores native to the coastal lowlands of the Fynbos Biome in the Western Cape, South Africa by Frans Gustav Theodor Radloff Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Science (Botany) at Stellenbosh University Promoter: Prof. L. Mucina Co-Promoter: Prof. W. J. Bond December 2008 DECLARATION By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 24 November 2008 Copyright © 2008 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ii ABSTRACT The south-western Cape is a unique region of southern Africa with regards to generally low soil nutrient status, winter rainfall and unusually species-rich temperate vegetation. This region supported a diverse large herbivore (> 20 kg) assemblage at the time of permanent European settlement (1652). The lowlands to the west and east of the Kogelberg supported populations of African elephant, black rhino, hippopotamus, eland, Cape mountain and plain zebra, ostrich, red hartebeest, and grey rhebuck. The eastern lowlands also supported three additional ruminant grazer species - the African buffalo, bontebok, and blue antelope. The fate of these herbivores changed rapidly after European settlement. Today the few remaining species are restricted to a few reserves scattered across the lowlands. This is, however, changing with a rapid growth in the wildlife industry that is accompanied by the reintroduction of wild animals into endangered and fragmented lowland areas.
