San People of Namibia

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

A San shows his hunting style.
San people traditionally hunted in long, tiring excursions using poison arrows made from beetle larvae. The arrows are not big enough to kill on their own so the bushmen after shooting their pray would have to follow, depending on the size of the game this could take days, until it succumb to the poison.
