It was an embarrassing defeat for the British. The British Empire suffered its worst defeat against an indigenous foe with vastly inferior military technology. The site today is most interesting as it literally maps the battle. Because of the hard ground the British were unable to bury their dead, so they built stone cairns where they fell to cover them instead. These cairns, painted white - are a grizzly reminder of the calamity which took place there and literally bring the battlefield into perspective.2022-08-23T12:52:54+00:00monthlyhttps://samilhistory.com/2022/08/22/the-ancs-use-of-the-death-penalty/https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/300433041_1974302426102958_7494626436995750172_n.jpeg300433041_1974302426102958_7494626436995750172_nhttps://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/solomon.jpegsolomonhttps://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/poster_mobilising_support_motloung.jpegposter_mobilising_support_motlounghttps://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/al2446_0242.jpegAL2446_0242https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/m_970501so_6e6f416465dada3226d2630f49acb722.jpegm_970501so_6e6f416465dada3226d2630f49acb722https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/al2446_4835.jpegAL2446_4835https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/cartoon-on-the-truth-and-reconciliation-commission-of-south-africa-on-the-left-the_q640.jpegCartoon-on-the-Truth-and-Reconciliation-Commission-of-South-Africa-On-the-left-the_Q640https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/screenshot-2022-08-22-at-17.06.40.pngScreenshot 2022-08-22 at 17.06.402022-08-23T08:34:03+00:00monthlyhttps://samilhistory.com/2017/05/10/a-lost-saaf-legacy/https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/sa_mil14.gifsa_mil14https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/za-saaf1.gifza-saaf1https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/zaaf82.gifza^af82https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/za-ndf2.gifza-ndf2https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/za_ndf03.gifza_ndf03https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/air_force_ensign_of_south_africa_1958-1967_1970-1981.pngAir_Force_Ensign_of_South_Africa_(1958-1967,_1970-1981)https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/air_force_ensign_of_south_africa.pngAir_Force_Ensign_of_South_Africahttps://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/screen-shot-2017-05-10-at-14-34-44.pngScreen Shot 2017-05-10 at 14.34.44https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/commonwealthrounds.jpgcommonwealthrounds2022-08-10T16:56:42+00:00monthlyhttps://samilhistory.com/2016/11/06/sailor-malan-ww2-fighter-ace-anti-apartheid-freedom-fighter/https://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/25532220_10155741598171480_6959427088699904771_o.jpg25532220_10155741598171480_6959427088699904771_ohttps://samilhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/malan1.jpgmalanROYAL AIR FORCE: 2ND TACTICAL AIR FORCE, 1943-1945 (CL 29) Group Captain A G Malan (second from left), Commanding Officer of No 145 (Free French) Wing discusses the operational situation on the morning of 'D-Day' with some of his pilots at Merston, Sussex.

The trial started on December 19, 1956. As the biggest case in South Africa's history lumbered to the end of its first stage this August 1957, the 156 accused men and women wondered how many of them would be back in court again. The 156 national leaders had first appeared at a preparatory examination into treason at the end of 1956, in the specially constructd court at the Drill Hall, Johannesburg; they had spent their lives in and out of court for most of 1957; and they could now see the possibility of the same prospect for the third calendar year, 1958, if they were committed for trial in the Supreme Court.

The treason trials, now the talk of South Africa and the world at large, started with a bang-bang-bang. There was drama inside the Drill Hall, where the preparatory examination into charges of high treason alleged against more than 150 persons from various organisations was held before the Chief Magistrate of Bloemfontein, Mr F.C.A. Wessel. And there was drama outside in the streets of Johannesburg when the police clashed several times with the crowd. All because the Drill Hall could not accommodate all the 5 000 people outside. First is was a booing that led to a baton charge that led to a stone-throwing that led to a gun-shooting. And side interludes of snatching Press cameras and arresting photographers.
