How did the Nile affect farming in the river valley?
The Nile River flooded during certain seasons. . . If the floods were bad, the water could reach the crops and damage the whole group of crops. Ancient people in Africa (huntergatherers) would dig canals to their farms if water levels of the Nile were particularly low that year. . . This unfortunantly does not longer happen as the (Asworth?) dam went in. Farmers now have to pay a fortune in fertiliser.
What are the similarities of the khoikhoi and san people?
They were two completely different ethnic groups of South Africa, who lived around the Cape of Good Hope when the Dutch first settled there. The biggest and probably the most important difference between them was the Khoikhoi were herders whereas the Khoisan (bushmen) were huntergatherers. Shortly after the arrival of the Europeans, epidemics such as smallpox decimated the numbers of the Khoikhoi, and they eventually disappeared completely. The colored (of mixed ethnic groups) people of the Cape today are mostly their descendants. The Khoisan on the other hand didn't quite live by the idea of ownership, and found the domesticated herds of the Europeans and other black ethnic groups (especially the Xhosa's and Zulus) easy prey. The mentioned groups thus literally hunted the Khoisan and eventually drove them into the Kalahari where I believe a few families still live.
