The San People

The San People, often referred to as Bushmen, are one of the oldest indigenous groups in Southern Africa, with a history that spans thousands of years. They are known for their rich hunter-gatherer culture, deep knowledge of the land, and unique rock art depicting their experiences and spirituality. Traditionally, they lived in small, mobile groups, relying on natural resources for food and shelter. The San have faced significant challenges due to colonialism and modern development, which have threatened their way of life. Today, they strive to preserve their cultural heritage while navigating contemporary societal changes.
