QUESTION 1.1 [20]
Read the case study titled “The Basotho Cultural Village” and answer the questions that
follow. The Basotho cultural village, situated at the golden gate Highlands National Park
in Clarens offers a unique South African experience in which you can learn about
traditional Sotho arts and crafts and their way of life. It consists of a rest camp that
resembles an 18th-century Sotho village combined with replica homesteads dating from
the 16th century to the present day. These showcase good examples of the mural art of
the Sotho people, known as “litema”. The replica homesteads do more than document
the evolution of Sotho culture. Visitors are also invited to taste the local beer brewed on-
site, share local food, enjoy traditional dances, meet village elders and learn how local
arts and crafts are produced. Most of the objects produced in the village are for sale,
along with items sourced from further afield in Free State province. Traditional Sotho
villages abound with crafters who work from home. They produce pottery, fabrics,
beadwork and grass hats, mats and baskets using traditional techniques and local
materials. You can arrange to visit some of these crafters, or simply buy their products
at the Basotho Cultural Village. You will also find iconic, conical Sotho hats, called
“mokorotlo”, on sale at the village. They are used to keep the sun at bay, as well as for
cultural festivals. Also, look out for traditional Sotho blankets. Their designs and colours
are significant, and blankets are worn in different ways for different ritual purposes.
