Description

A photograph of the framework of a Khoekhoe/Khoikhoi house. At the present time, these are finished off in every possible way, sticks plastered in with clay, or petrol cans cut up and the tin used to cover the framework. The original description used the term "Hottentot", which was a colonial-era term for the indigenous Kloekloe/Khoikhoi people of southern Africa, now usually considered a racial term.
