The Bushmen (also known as Basarwa in Tswana, or San in Nama) are an indigenous population of the Kalahari Desert, which spans South Africa and neighboring Botswana and Namibia as well as southern Angola. They were traditionally a hunter-gather peoples, part of the Khoisan group and are related to the traditionally pastoral Khoikhoi, but starting in the 1950's though the 1990s they switched to farming with only minor hunting and gathering activities.[1] Archaeological evidence suggests that they have lived in southern Africa (and probably other areas of Africa) for at least 22,000 years but probably much longer. Genetic evidence suggests they are one of the oldest, if not the oldest, peoples in the world—a "genetic Adam" according to Spencer Wells, from which all the worlds ethnic groups can ultimately trace genetic heritage
