Studies in African Archaeology 17

Doctoral thesis. The author examines the bead and ceramic trade between indigenous pastoralists at Walvis Bay and Western seafarers and identifies three phases of social and economic change. The wealthy pastoralists controlled the trade and circulation of goods inland, but by the mid-19th century commerical operations at Walvis Bay had collapsed and the people were dependent upon wage-labour, charity and scavenging.
