check out the Voortrekker ... by Kallista
check out the Voortrekker Monument, (at Pretoria) ... a huge granite block, designed to symbolise the indomitable spirit of the Voortrekkers ... the brave Boers, in the mid 19th century, pushed northward to the unknown (at that time)territory. The monument is surrounded by a wall depicting ox-wagons, representing the trek wagons which the Boers drew up in a circle to form as a defense.
