The whale capital, Hermanus, and the safari region of the Eastern Cape, located on either side and just beyond the borders of the Garden Route have also been included in this document. The Garden Route was so named, due to its lush and ecologically diverse vegetation and the numerous lagoons and lakes dotted along the scenic coastline. The region includes quaint coastal towns such as Mossel Bay, Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, Nature’s Valley and George. -

This Accepted 19 March 2010 evidence directs our focus to Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 6, when from 195e123 ka the world was in a fluctuating but predominantly glacial stage, when much of Africa was cooler and drier, and when dated Keywords: archaeological sites are rare. Previously we have shown that humans had expanded their diet to include Middle Stone Age marine resources by w164 ka (Æ12 ka) at Pinnacle Point Cave 13B (PP13B) on the south coast of South Mossel Bay Africa, perhaps as a response to these harsh environmental conditions. The associated material culture Origins of modern humans documents an early use and modification of pigment, likely for symbolic behavior, as well as the production of bladelet stone tool technology, and there is now intriguing evidence for heat treatment of lithics. PP13B also includes a later sequence of MIS 5 occupations that document an adaptation that increasingly focuses on coastal resources. -
Corrosion Map of South Africa's Macro Atmosphere
Corrosion map of South Africa’s macro atmosphere AUTHORS: Darelle T. Janse van Rensburg1,2 The first atmospheric corrosion map of South Africa, produced by Callaghan in 1991, has become outdated, Lesley A. Cornish1 because it primarily focuses on the corrosivity of coastal environments, with little differentiation given Josias van der Merwe1 concerning South Africa’s inland locations. To address this problem, a study was undertaken to develop AFFILIATIONS: a new corrosion map of the country, with the emphasis placed on providing greater detail concerning 1School of Chemical and Metallurgical South Africa’s inland regions. Here we present this new corrosion map of South Africa’s macro atmosphere, Engineering and DST-NRF Centre of Excellence in Strong Materials, based on 12-month corrosion rates of mild steel at more than 100 sites throughout the country. Assimilations University of the Witwatersrand, and statistical analyses of the data (published, unpublished and new) show that the variability in the corrosion Johannesburg, South Africa rate of mild steel decreases significantly moving inland. Accordingly, the average first-year corrosion rate of 2Orytech (Pty) Ltd, Roodepoort, South Africa mild steel at the inland sites (at all corrosion monitoring spots located more than 30 km away from the ocean) measured 21±12 µm/a [95% CI: 18–23 µm/a]. The minimum inland figure was about 1.3 µm/a (recorded CORRESPONDENCE TO: at Droërivier in the Central Karoo) and the maxima were approximately 51 µm/a and 50 µm/a in the industrial Darelle Janse van Rensburg hearts of Germiston (Gauteng) and Sasolburg (Free State), respectively. -
