Trade and economics in Southern Africa : the archaeological evidence
The object of this article is to examine the evidence for early trading relations between Southern Africa and the outside world and the impact of such relations on the communities in Southern Africa. The period to be surveyed begins at about AD 700, as it is from about this time that we begin to have evidence of contacts between the region and areas beyond the African continent, and ends at about the twelfth century AD when large scale political systems (states) began to emerge.
