Nama People: Timeless Cultural Heritage in the Northern Cape

Discover the timeless cultural heritage of the Nama people in the Northern Cape.
Amidst the winds of change, the Nama people have held steadfast to their distinctive lifestyle, characterized by the iconic long dresses, full skirts, and Voortrekker bonnets reminiscent of the early Dutch settlers in the 1800s. Witness the time-honoured traditions as they prepare food and cultivate a connection to their history in the same ways as their ancestors.
Adapting to their semi-nomadic existence and the challenging environment, they've ingeniously crafted portable, beehive-shaped huts from woven reeds-a symbol of their resilience against the extremes of summer's heat and winter's chill. Join us in celebrating the Nama people's enduring spirit and the living testament of their heritage. ‪@Tekweni‬
