Summary

Border Cave is a cave located in the Lebombo Mountains, on the border between KwaZulu-Natal region (South Africa) and Eswatini. The archaeological excavations in around 1934, resumed during the 70’s, and the site is currently being investigated. Border Cave, due to its excellent preservation of the material, is a window to the knowledge of South African prehistory. The aim of this work is to observe this archaeological site from the experience of the authors after their participation in the 2019 field work, with an emphasis on the relationship between the research team and the local community.
