P. Videcoq — On Land Occupation and Farm Registration in the Transvaal before the First British Occupation (1835-1877) . The need for more grazing lands played an important part in the genesis of the 1834 Great Trek. After the crossing of the Vaal and the defeat of Msilikazi, the Voortrekkers did not really settled down on strictly delimi-tated estates but went on with their former habits of semi-nomadic pastoralism. Land delimitation always remained rather vague and estates boundaries ill-defined, the official regulations about registration being applied in a haphazard fashion, even after the officiai recognition of the Republic (1852) and the Act Registration Ordinance of 1866. The failure of the Transvaal government in having their own laws efiectively applied was instrumental in the 1877 conflict. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
