Description
Under the apartheid regime, and the British before them, up until today, with the inclusion of the current government, the widely accepted curricula taught by all, are aligned to the fact that the colonisation of the Cape by the Dutch in sixteen-fifty-two, is the supposed beginning of the port. This account debunks that theory and corrects the largely as yet untold facts. Long before Holland's involvement, for more than half-a-century, well over a thousand ships with their scurvy-ridden crews entered the proto-port and were nursed back to health, and were victualled with fresh supplies by the indigenous Khoikhoi tribe. Although they have almost been lost to history, this story focuses on the life of the indigene 'Harry' and his niece 'Kratoa' as the Dutch called them - both famous figures known by all of the Cape's international maritime trade in the mid seventeenth century. Prior to the annexation by the Dutch, Kratoa's rich tapestry of events while living solely in harmony with nature, is a fascinating and historically accurate tale and sets the record straight about how the indigenous people in the region actually lived. The story is based on researched facts and is historically accurate.
