在本文中，我们批判性地评估了最近的一份出版物，该出版物试图将南部非洲后期史前的大多数发展归因于印度淘金者。我们表明，这本书具有“邪教考古学”的所有特征，复活了19世纪的偏见，轻蔑地驳斥了现代非洲研究。“印度-非洲”被深入研究，相信攻击比忽视这些出版物更有利可图。
In this paper, we assess critically a recent publication that seeks to attribute most developments in the later prehistory of southern Africa to Indian gold-seekers. We show that the book has all the characteristics of 'cult archaeology', resurrecting the prejudices of the nineteenth century and dismissing modern African studies with contempt. 'Indo-Africa' is examined in depth in the belief that it is more profitable to attack than to ignore such publications.
