Lance Gewer of Icon Productions made available Lance Penny’s artist impressions of Mapungubwe on pages 32, 33 and 40. Johan Delannoie created the impression of K2 on page 18 and the drawing of Mapungubwe on the cover. Bob Cnoops photographed these reconstructions as well as the artefacts on pages 11, 20, 21, 48 and 49. Wendy Voorvelt prepared the maps. Marilee Wood provided the photograph of the beads on page 21. The Mapungubwe Archives, University of Pretoria, kindly supplied the photographs on pages 19, 34, 39, 47 and 53, and gave their permission to use the material on pages 35, 36 and 47 from the edited volume on Mapungubwe by Fouche 1937. The figure on page 38 comes from Gardner 1963. The National Culture History Museum Pretoria gave permission to use the photograph on page 11. The aerial photograph on page 31 is courtesy of the Trigonometrical Survey of South Africa. Finally, I am grateful to the various organizations that have supported our research in the Mapungubwe area, in particular De Beers, the Mellon Foundation, the Indigenous Knowledge Systems of the National Research Foundation, SANParks and the University of the Witwatersrand.
