Summary "Boesman-Stories, Deel 3. Die boesman self, sy sedes, gewoontes en bekwaamhede" by G. R. von Wielligh is a comprehensive collection that investigates the life, customs, and skills of the Bushmen, written in the early 20th century. This volume is part of a series that aims to present a detailed ethnographic account of this indigenous group, shedding light on their culture, tools, and belief systems. The work seeks to bring forward an understanding of the Bushman identity, exploring their social roles such as hunters, artists, and family members through various chapters. The opening of this volume sets the stage for an in-depth exploration of the Bushman as an individual and as part of a community. The author introduces the general characteristics and cultural aspects of the Bushman people, discussing their physical attributes, social structure, and the harsh realities of their existence in the wild. It emphasizes their adaptability, resourcefulness, and unique connection to their environment, hinting at the insights and personal stories that will follow in subsequent chapters, which delve into their hunting practices, artistic expressions, and spiritual beliefs.
