Bushman are the indigenous people of S. Africa -- they are hunter-gatherers. In Botswana, they are officially called "Basarwa". It is said that they represent a unique isolated genetic group and many people believe that their ancestors predate genetic changes of the rest of humanity -- kinda referring to them as "genetic Adam" -- as in biblical Adam. Some people believe all humans can trace their genetic heritage back to this group. Whether its true or not, well, I don't know. But that's how I understand what the "bushman" are.
