Bird-Lore of the Eastern Cape Province
BIRD-LORE OF THE EASTERN CAPE PROVINCE BY REV. ROBERT GODFREY, M.A. " Bantu Studies " Monograph Series, No. 2 JOHANNESBURG WITWATERSRAND UNIVERSITY PRESS 1941 598 . 29687 GOD BIRD-LORE OF THE EASTERN CAPE PROVINCE BIRD-LORE OF THE EASTERN CAPE PROVINCE BY REV. ROBERT GODFREY, M.A. " Bantu Studies" Monograph .Series, No. 2 JOHANNESBURG WITWATERSRAND UNIVERSITY PRESS 1941 TO THE MEMORY OF JOHN HENDERSON SOGA AN ARDENT FELLOW-NATURALIST AND GENEROUS CO-WORKER THIS VOLUME IS AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED. Published with the aid of a grant from the Inter-f University Committee for African Studies and Research. PREFACE My interest in bird-lore began in my own home in Scotland, and was fostered by the opportunities that came to me in my wanderings about my native land. On my arrival in South Africa in 19117, it was further quickened by the prospect of gathering much new material in a propitious field. My first fellow-workers in the fascinating study of Native bird-lore were the daughters of my predecessor at Pirie, Dr. Bryce Ross, and his grandson Mr. Join% Ross. In addition, a little arm y of school-boys gathered birds for me, supplying the Native names, as far as they knew them, for the specimens the y brought. In 1910, after lecturing at St. Matthew's on our local birds, I was made adjudicator in an essay-competition on the subject, and through these essays had my knowledge considerably extended. My further experience, at Somerville and Blythswood, and my growing correspondence, enabled me to add steadily to my material ; and in 1929 came a great opportunit y for unifying my results. -

Two eThembeni staff members inspected the borrow pits on 8 and 9 September 2008 and completed controlled-exclusive surface surveys of each. We identified no heritage resources within any of the proposed development areas. The landscape within which the borrow pits are located is one of extensive agriculture and conservation, dominated overwhelmingly by game and hunting farms. Scattered villages, towns and farmsteads are present and infrastructure is generally basic and limited to services that provide for local needs. All the borrow pits will be rehabilitated according to the standards of the Department of Minerals and Energy, to ensure that visual impacts on the landscape are minimized in the long term. We recommend that the development proceed with no further heritage mitigation and have submitted this report to the South African Heritage Resources Agency in fulfilment of the requirements of the Heritage Resources Act 1999. The relevant SAHRA personnel are Dr Antonieta Jerardino (telephone 021 462 4502) and Mr Thanduxolo Lungile (telephone 043 722 1740/2/6). -

Biomonitoring of the Keiskamma River System (R10 Catchment)
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.

It is a platform for the general public, civil society and the public and private sector to contribute to the consolidated effort to fund various initiatives. The Citizens in Solidarity campaign (CIS), which is part of the overall communication campaign of the Fund, aims to lower the spread of COVID-19 through strengthening the Fund’s objectives of prevention, detection and care. Our message is to invite all South Africans to become Citizens in Solidarity. Being a Citizen in Solidarity is easy. The campaign is an opportunity for every South African to play their part in preventing the spread of the virus. The message is that a few simple changes in behaviour saves lives. And it is easy to do. “Wash your hands to protect your neighbours; wear a mask to protect your friends; keep a safe distance to protect your family; and just be kind.” A growing sense of fear, anxiety, mistrust and grief spread through communities as COVID-19 cases increased. The mandate of the CIS campaign is to leverage networks across key sectors of society to change simple personal behaviours that could significantly spread the rate of infection. -
Media Statement
MEDIA STATEMENT Activities lined up in Eastern Cape to mark National Water Week 2021 14 March 2021 The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) will partner with various municipalities around the Eastern Cape and Coca Cola Beverages South Africa (CCBSA) to celebrate the National Water Week 2021 campaign from 15-22 March under the theme “Valuing Water”. A number of activities will take place in various municipalities to mark the celebration of National Water Week. This is an effort to create awareness about the importance of water and the need to manage this scarce resource in a sustainable way for present and future generations. The National Water Week 2021 takes place as the country grapples with the deadly coronavirus pandemic that has claimed many lives across the globe. The demand for water has increased since the outbreak of the pandemic because everyone is expected to wash their hands frequently to stop the spread of the virus. Eastern Cape remains of the water stressed provinces with some areas of the province facing devastating drought. This year’s National Water Week coincides with the Human Rights Day and World Water Day on 21 and 22 March respectively. The National Water Week further seeks to promote the use, conservation, development and protection of water resources. In addition, it aims to encourage dialogue within the sector of how the different players can work together to create lasting solutions. National Water Week 2021 activities will take place as follows: DATE VENUE TIME 16/03/2021 DEBERA VILLAGE, 10h00 NGCOBO 16/03/2021 NGXABANE VILLAGE, 10h00 LADY FRERE 17/03/2021 BOLOTWA VILLAGE, 10h00 QUEENSTOWN Department of Water and Sanitation South Africa DWS_ RSA 18/03/2021 MZOMHLE VILLAGE, 10h00 TSOMO 24/03/2021 COBOSI VILLAGE, 10h00 NGCOBO 25/03/2021 KWAMASINGATHA 10h00 VILLAGE, K.W.T 26/03/2021 MACLEANTOWN 10h00 30/03/2021 XONXA DAM, LADY 10h00 FRERE The department urges communities to participate in the celebrations of municipalities closest to them and continue saving water for the current and future generations.
