Bigalke, E.H. - Annals of the Cape Provincial Museums. Volume 9. Part 9. The Exploitation of Shellfish By Coastal Tribesmen of the Transkei.

Cape Provincial Museums, Albany Museum, Grahamstown. Natural History. Volume 9. Part 9. 13th December 1973. Printed wraps, Stapled, p.159-p.175, 184mm wide x 240mm high. New unread copy. The consumption of shellfish by non-Bantu groups who lived along the south and south-east coast of South Africa has been extensively documented in archaeological literature. Traveller's accounts and early ethnographic descriptions of the Bantu-speaking peoples of present-day Transkei and Ciskei with few exceptions stress the absence of a tradition of fishing, often ascribing it to a prohibition against eating fish. The study fills a gap in the ethnography of the Southern Nguni living in the coastal districts of the Transkei.
