After a recent visit to Mapungubwe, I realised that the recent history in general, and the history of the area as a military base specifically, is being ignored. Whatever the reasons may be – political, uncertainty of facts, sensitivities – this is a sad state of affairs and need to be corrected.

So, coming here, soon, some additional information on the recent history of Mapungubwe.

For now, have a look at some photographs taken over the past 30 years, starting in 1991.

A mirror of HistoWeb is available here. If you spot any problems, please let me know.
