Searching for a symbolic shipwreck in Table Bay : Haarlem (1647)
When on 25 March 1647 the VOC ship Haarlem stranded in Table Bay, nobody expected that this incident would
become the catalyst that created one of the roots of current multiracial and multicultural South African society.1 Of
the ship’s crew, 58 were repatriated soon after stranding, but 62 men stayed behind to try and salvage as much
of the cargo as possible. During their sojourn, the men from Haarlem came into contact with indigenous people.
Upon returning to the Netherlands, the crew reported favourably of their experiences. As a result, VOC management
decided to establish a much-needed stopover for its ships that later developed into the City of Cape Town. Although
no conclusive physical evidence of the wreck has yet been obtained, the multidisciplinary approach followed in an
effort to locate the wreck of the Haarlem is reported here.
The basis is provided by historical information that is contained in archival documentation. Of particular importance
are contemporary eyewitness accounts, as contained in part of a journal that was kept by the junior merchant from
the Haarlem, Leendert Jansz, and associated correspondence.2,3 Jansz was put in charge of the salvage attempts
that followed the wrecking. Additional information could be abstracted from a report by commissioners who visited
the wreck during the course of 1647; details provided by the commander of the fleet that repatriated the remainder
of the crew in 1648; accounts by the first commander of the settlement at the Cape, Jan van Riebeeck; as well as
a contemporary published description of the Cape of Good Hope.http://www.sajs.co.zaam2018Historical and Heritage Studie
The citizen soldier in the Border War
The role of the citizen soldier - meaning any man (and latterly woman) who takes up arms, not out of choice but through necessity, and then returns to his or her civilian life once that necessity is resolved - in the long bush conflict, popularly known as the "border war" has never been clearly understood or even fully appreciated

Sosio-ekonomiese agtergrond as faktor by die skolastiese-vertraging van die plattelandse Kleurling
Proefskrif (M.A.) -- Universiteit van Stellenbosch, 1954.AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Een van die aspekte van die probleem van vertraging by die plattelandse
kleurlingkind, waarop die Universiteit van Stellenbosch moes
ingaan, was die verband tussen vertraging op skool en sosio-ekonomiese
agtergrond.
Huidige sielkundiges huldig die opvatting dat omgewing, en by
uitstek die sosiale omgewing, 'n belangrike vormende krag uitoefen op
die reaksies en prestasies van die individu. Aan die hand hiervan is die hipotese toe gestel dat (die swak sosio-ekonomiese omstandighede van die kleurling 'n aanleidende rol speel by sy skolastiese vertraging.) Die geldigheid van hierdie stelling word in hierdie bepaalde
ondersoek nagegaan
