Kwamfazi Shelter is in the Amangwane Traditional Authority Area.

Interpretation by Celeste Rossouw: Some researchers like Frans Prins believe that larger kaross-clad figures might represent AmaZizi people who adopted Bushman ways during times of drought and during the Mfecane-Difeqane. They are the only group of Bantu-speaking societies who underwent acculturation from agriculturalists to hunters-gatherers during times of economic and political stress.
